  • Recessed winch mount, ready for the market-standard 10" x 4.5" bottom foot mounting profile

  • Compatible with Warn Zeon winches

  • Built-in Hi-Lift jacking points

  • Easy bolt-on installation

  • Includes mounting hardware

  • Includes JcrOffroad sticker

  • Hand built in the USA

  • Verified fitment with Warn ZEON 8/10/12, Warn VR EVO 8/10/12, and Harbor Freight Badlands Apex 12,000 lb winches. For other winches, compare overall dimensions to these models to help verify fitment

  • Not compatible with the TeraFlex S/T Swaybar System

  • Bare steel lets you finish it your way. Get it coated soon after delivery to prevent surface rust.

 



Which Jeeps does it fit?

Ordered the Mauler front bumper and the Crusader mid-width rear bumper while the black Friday sale was going on. I wasn't expecting to get them for at least a few weeks, especially because of the sale. Not only did they arrive in less than a week, but they were packaged exceptionally well and the quality is outstanding. With all of the material and fabrication that go into these products, you can't really complain about the price, especially not when you factor in free shipping that might cost you $1-200 somewhere else.

When i ordered this bumper i knew that the quality was going to be top notch, but when i recieved i was anazed at the quality of their product every weld is perfect, and all slag is cleaned smooth. I also ordered their rear crusader bumper and sliders both of which are just as impressive. The only issue i had with all 3 products was that the 2 holes on the bottom bumper did not line up perfectly, about an 1/8 of an inch off so i just took a file and opened them up a bit and had no issues. Jcr makes great stuff and have great customer service.

Absolutely beautiful bumper. Came raw steel, as i powdercoat locally. Welds are amazing. Lines and appointments are very well thought out. Had to wallow out a mounting hole to get it to fit perfectly after powder coat, it fit fine on initial fitment. The bumper truly wraps around the frame, there's little to no room for error on their concept. It's truly as custom a product as you can get. One size almost fits all if that makes sense. I like the way winch is somehwat protected. It's not dropped...the bumper comes UP around it. I want to get sliders eventually. Which would be the 4th major piece i've purchased from JCR. As always JCR is always there to make good on anything you might find unsatisfactory.

I want to add to the description. The light tabs on the Stinger tube are 8" center to center.

Great bumper, VERY Strong and looks great! It shipped with spray in foam around it to protect the powdercoat I additionally asked for. Only real issue I has was the mounting location for the bottom part on the drivers side was slightly bent in, I had to hammer it out flat to get the bumper to slide onto the frame. Nothing I couldn't handle. All in all, outstanding bumper, very pleased with how it is constructed and looks on my TJ.
