I hope to soon. I think im going to run both the front and rear. Also, the rear tire carrier has been redesigned to be less bulky I think!

I was originally interested in mounting these front and rear on my JK but just picked up a Warn Elite for the front that I'll install this weekend. I am still interested in the rear Atlas bumper as I need storage for two 20L fuel cans and my spare, I'm very interested in seeing finished product pictures of your install.

I have decided to pull the trigger on these too. front, rear and the new atlas rockerguard/sidestep. I love the idea of the storage and I like the look of the bumpers.

I think Smittybilt did themselves a huge dis-service by not having the Atlas bumpers on display at the Off-Road Expo a few weeks ago (hell, they could have mounted them on any of the 1,000 JKs that were there). I mean the eff'in show was in Pomona, that isn't that far from Compton. I drove further than that to attend. It would have been nice to have seen them and been able to examine the build quality, etc.

I was able to see a Warn Elite at the show and that was the primary reason I opted for it for the front instead of the Atlas.

Installed the rear bumper today. Took about 2 hours but overall smooth install. It's dark out now but I'll take pics soon. Great quality overall and looks pretty lol.

Haven't added any accessories yet such as the Jerry cans or hilift and still need to extend the wires in order to run my CB antennae and 3rd brake light

Nice pics, thanks! Is there any provision included for relocating the third brake light? What are you planning to install for a tramp stamp?
