Cherokee Stubby Front Winch Bumper - XJ Mauler
This is it, the last ledge on the nastiest trail you and your XJ have ever been on. The Wrangler guys were ribbing you for your mall rated Jeep in the parking lot this morning, but half way through the trail it was all cheers and high fives as your 37" tires and 101" wheelbase were walking the obstacles they were having troubles with. This exit ledge is something different though... nearly three feet tall and undercut. Coming at it straight will put it right into the d-rings of any bumper, Wrangler or Cherokee; so you've got hit it at an angle. You creep up at 30 degrees to the face, waiting for first contact of sticky tires and rock so you can put the hammer down for victory, for Cherokees! Suddenly, THUD! The sound of your solid steel bumper hits the rock. Nope, your full-width XJ winch bumper doesn't have the clearance. The Wrangler guys chuckle as they start stacking rocks for you... So many jokes about the mall.
JcrOffroad's Mauler Front Winch bumper is designed for those looking for maximum clearance and an uninhibited approach angle for the Jeep Cherokee XJ. Get up over those rocks and ledges that would otherwise hit a full-width bumper.

Q Zach • 06/21/2021, 2:02:24 PM What the maximum weight winch that can b used?
A 06/25/2021, 11:26:41 AM We recommend 8k or 10k winches.
Q Michael Whitehead • 08/15/2021, 9:22:09 PM Does this bumper include the steering box spacer as part of the uniframe tie in kit?
A 09/02/2021, 10:07:16 AM Yes
Q Maxwell Cawthon • 03/17/2022, 0:40:06 AM What is the reason for recommending 8k or 10k winches? the 10k (94lbs) and 12k (99lbs) Smittybilt winches are basically the same weight
A 04/06/2022, 12:43:58 PM If they are the same case size, then they will probably fit. We do most of our testing with 8k and 10K, and for light Jeeps that is what we recommend. Usually a larger capacity winch in the same case size means slower line speed.
Q Tomas • 03/14/2024, 1:07:34 AM How much does the bumper weigh?
A 04/17/2024, 5:41:57 PM 50 lbs.

This Bumper is constantly getting compliments from wheelers on the trails as well as in the city. Its stood up to numerous pulls and tugs from my winch as well as tow straps. Really impressed with the quality and durability. Dsza
