Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The overall look of the bumper is outstanding. It arrived unbelievably quickly and was well packaged and secured. The install was fairly easy aside from the expected weight of the bumper. No problem with two sets of hands. The only issue is not all mounting holes align properly on a 2 door so be forewarned. There is a small cross member that runs from frame rail to frame rail under the bumper. The bottom of this bumper has 4 square holes that are meant to be secured to drilled holes in that cross member via 4 carriage head bolts and nuts/lock washers. According to a Smittybilt rep, the 2 door cross member is slightly farther back than on the Unlimiteds and therefore those holes don't line up correctly. You can still get the 2 center bolts in but be prepared for some difficult tapping and drilling as they are located right on a bend in the cross member. Despite this, the bumper is still very sturdy and I believe the price and looks override the slight flaw in design. However, I do believe Smittybilt needs to either make the lower piece slightly longer and simply include two rows of holes to allow all JK owners the option of correctly bolting into the cross member, or at least document in the instructions that 2 door owners should expect such out of their installation. Overall I'm very happy with my purchase.
