Anyone have it?

Any complaints?

Any opinions?

Thanks!

 

Yea, I have it. Its a classic big ol' bumper. I believe its well-built and provides good protection. The factory fog lights work with it. Its been on the Jeep for about 6 months and no sign of rust so far. Sometimes I wonder if I should have bought a bumper that lets the winch sit down inside rather than on top, as my winch is pretty high up.

 

I got em. It's the classic rock bumper, full width. I actually do a fair amount of water crossing so I wanted my winch up a little higher. I try to keep from submerging it as much as I can. Obviously, there is a point where it's getting submerged. I have no rust problems, built very solid, and it's heavy duty.

 

thanks for the replies.

 

have it, love it. I've had it for two months, I hope I don't get the rust problem.

 

You might want to look at the Mopar bumper. About the same price.

 

I don't have the bar. I've had the bumpers a year now, no problem. I've had other Jeeps with Tomken and Warn bumpers before. Not an issue for me. Too bad they sucked with helping out on the previous post.

 

I have the combination bumper\powerplant. So far, I've been very happy with it, and no rust after 6 months and all the road salt.

With that said, my friend has both a Warn front and rear bumper. No rust on the front after 3 years, but the rear bumper started rusting within a year. Most of the rust is concentrated around the cut edges. Once the edges started rusting, the coating basically peels off. This is due to poor removal of oxides on the edges.

The company that I work for supplies quite a bit of the Warn powdercoatings, primarily to all of the sub-manufacturers. When I see any manufacturer outsourcing their coating operation to multiple different subs, there's always considerable potential for variability in the finish quality. I believe that this is contributing to some of these cases where some people have this premature rusting and others don't.

Note that I am in no way affiliated with Warn or have mapped out their whole coating process, whether it's internal or outsourced. This is just a theory based on observation.

In the end, I'm one of the guys that is crossing his fingers that I don't have an issue with rusting. Pretty sure that if you don't see it in the first six months, you should see a normal service life.

 

I've had it for nearly 2 months, not rust problems whatsoever, and I'm getting the loop bar soon
