Killer deal on a high end rear bumper from Quadratec (valid until 6/30.) [ Phone - 800-745-5337.]
(I just purchased one.) [Part # 1205.2120]
Smittybilt SRC Carbine Rear Bumper, welded in D-Ring mounts, an integrated rear Class III bumper hitch. Stripped down/minimalistic, high angle clearance. Textured black powder coated. Etc. (Smittybilt stuff rocks.)
This type of bumper usually runs $700+. ($349.00)
Smittybilt, is by far, the best deal for the $$, out there in my opinion. 99% of the mods on my Jeep, barring suspension and engine, are Smittybilt.
Fits 7'-18' JK Wrangler.
Just passing it on.

Glad someone could/maybe use this Chris.
Best deal I have seen, on a high end bumper in many years.
I jumped on it, quickly.
I've been looking. For some reason, rear bumpers are more $$ than front bumpers. (?) Crazy.
Quadratec.com, my Brother.
I hope you jump on this Chris.
If you have even remotely been looking at a nice high end rear bumper for your JK. this is the best deal, (by far,) I have seen in quite a few years of seriously looking.
Just saying.
I have made a bunch for old CJ's most for a winch with a roller fairlead. I even made one to hold air and put a air chuck on it so I couls air up when I got off the trail.
Aftermarket aluminum die cut inner fender/engine guards, etc.
Now that my Jeep is jacked up, I am trying to address/redress the parts that are now showing, as well as protecting my engine from detrimental detritus.
Nice to have (both) my vehicles paid off couple months ago. Extra almost $800, I can play with.
I am so, so bad.
Don't have to answer any of those "Honey, but................" questions.
I work hard, earn every dime. Almost everything is paid for. The rest will be, here in a few months.
Why would you want to "make me bumper?" What have I done to you?
I bet with some "metal and Beer," you would attempt to make me quite a few things. :?
Yes.
Mountain City, is quite the Metropolis Ricci.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
I have a chop saw and a gas axe, seriously I can make a frikin bumper that would derail a train
I would rather do it in the fall or winter though :oops: Its a little hot to be welding right now.
Probably order a Cat back exhaust tomorrow, (that I am looking at.)
Be careful with the inner fenders, I hear those Jeep V6's have a tendency to over heat.
Please tell me your Jeep is not Yellow.
No my "Jeep is not Yellow."
I personally liked the solid Aluminum (Poison Spyder logo) inner fender/engine guards over the more prevalent vented variety. (Based on it's looks and its added protection of the engine compartment.) My Jeep has never tended to overheat. (Has never gone beyond mid level temp. on the guage.)
I can always ventilate it, via a 3/8" drill bit if necessary, down the road, if needed. With all the spaces at the bottom, and around the shock/coil mount - it will still get much more incoming air than stock.
Thanks for the input/insight though. I appreciate it.
My Jeep is not only lifted, but has had the stock Jeep fenders, and inner fender wells replaced with Smittybilt Flat Steel Fenders. This opened the engine bay up quite a bit underneath.
Very much looking forward to getting all my various new parts, in order to start working on my Jeep.
It has really been coming together lately. Looking Awesome. (I usually field one to two offers/inquiries a week to purchase it.) One of the nicest ones I have seen on the road/trail.
Lift kit, rear bumper, will have it most prominent, and on display. Looking forward to the exhaust tone, and the added benefits associated with this system.
Free shipping, and Lifetime Warranty, does not hurt either.
Yes, all through Quadratec.com
