A note about patience, from Kevin, a man of *ultimate* patience...not.

Folks, PLEASE do not make your life more difficult by scheduling your installation date until ALL of the parts and pieces show up on your doorstep.  You laugh, but common sense is NOT common practice!  I ask you this as a friend, as invariably, either the shipper, the vendor, or some other person involved will make an error and throw your plan into a tailspin.  I get at least one e-mail a month from someone who got impatient and started doing an install, only to find out that they were missing something, or that a vendor was backordered, or the shipper lost the box, or something that throws off their schedule and their daily driver is now torn apart in the driveway, awaiting a part that's not to arrive for another few days.  Don't be that guy...you don't have ANY need for that sort of stress, and there is little we can do on our end to assist you if you're in this predicament...except maybe pass along a recommendation for a good rental car company.  PLEASE don't put yourself into this situation!  Your loved-ones will thank me, lol.

 

 How long have you looked for a great looking set of bumpers for your Grand?  Want to set it off so that it stops looking like every other ZJ on your block?  Try out these bumpers for size.  Extreme Duty...rock-bashable...high-clearance...and allowing you to mount up a winch, these bumpers are exactly what you need to protect the front and rear of your ZJ from a disaster with a rock or tree.  Also available now are the Hard-KOR Steath Front ZJ Bumpers!  These were CAD designed for us, are bent out of THICK 3/16" plate steel (50% thicker than the current market leaders' bumpers are!!) and are mounted with a VERY sturdy mounting system that ties the bumper in with the weak uni-frame rails in sandwich-fashion, making the sturdiest mounting system available on ANY aftermarket bumper I've ever seen.  They weigh less than 100lbs, and can hold up to a 15k rated winch.  Also notice the D-ring tabs that are a $45.97 upgrade.  Shipping is available via Truck Freight only...ranging from $125 to $250 depending on how close you are to Phoenix, AZ.  There is a $70 residential surcharge if you have us ship it to a house rather than a zoned-business address.  Light tabs can be drilled and mounted in the front section, but is discouraged due to the turbulence they create, causing your Jeep to overheat in some circumstances.  Click on the images below for a larger photo.

A note from Kevin about front and rear bumpers and rear tire carrier design...

When deciding on a bumper for your Jeep make sure that you take into account some of the unforeseen issues. 

1) Does the tire carrier hold the tire in a way to reduce blind spots and maximize visibility out the rear?  Our carrier mounts on the driver's side, in your natural blind-spot, so that you can see both over your right shoulder AND still see out the rear view mirror, which is mostly impossible with nearly all other carriers on the market who put the carrier in the middle or to the right of the rear window.

2) How is the tire carrier mounted?  Can it withstand a washboard road with the weight of a 35" tire on a steel wheel mounted on it?  Our tire carrier uses a patented cam-latch, which utilizes an easy-to-open lever which puts constant tension on the latch and hasp assembly which completely eliminates rattles from your carrier.  And, you can actually lift the entire rear end of the Jeep off the ground with a forklift from OUR tire carrier...how's that for strong?

3) What sort of hinge is included?  Ours uses twin 3/4" Heim joints, which not only has over 12,000 lbs. of radial load capability EACH (there are two...that's 24,000 lbs. total), but are also easily replaceable if they wear over time, and you are also able to fine-tune the height of the carrier up and down by threading the heim joint in and out.  Also, you can completely remove the carrier from the bumper very easily if you wanted to. 

4) Our bumpers are built with 1/4" ultra-thick steel plate in the center sections (between the frame mounts for added rigidity) and 3/16" thick steel plate everywhere else, which is more than 50% thicker than the more well-known brands of bumper.  Have you ever seen a (well-known brand) front winch bumper bend in the center from a heavy winch pull?  I have, and that's why we use 1/4" and 3/16" steel with fortified 3/8" thick frame rail mounts.  This bumper ain't going ANYWHERE once you mount it up, winch or no. 

5) Our bumpers allow for the best approach angle and departure angle currently available in ANY aftermarket Grand Cherokee bumper manufacturer, 'cause that's how we roll, playa.

6) Our winch is inserted inside the front bumper, all the way down, so as to not give you overheating problems like some of the other aftermarket bumpers have been known to cause.

 

Also available are our Pre-Runner Style bumpers, which are nearly as beefy, but are a tad lighter.  Click on the images below for a larger photo.

S/H costs: By Truck Freight only.  Please e-mail me your ZIP CODE to figure shipping cost.  A business with a loading dock is $30~$60 cheaper than a residence. 

 ALL BUMPERS COME NON-POWDERCOATED. 

Krylon spray paint works well, and so does POR-15.  Even if you decide you want professional painting or powdercoating, you can probably have the bumpers powdercoated AFTER they arrive locally for less than I can charge you to do them.  Do some price comparisons before ordering.  Just trying to save you some money.
