Great!
By C. Mayberry
In my opinion you cant beat the quality of this bumper for the price. Very heavy duty and looks great as well. Customer service is top notch and with free shipping its a great value from Amazon. The only thing they dont tell you is that you do have to drill 4 holes due to the fact it has a class 3 hitch built in. I dont think you could pull the bumper off without ripping the Jeep in half. I have alot of Smitybilt as well as Bestop item on my 02. Very pleased.

Heavyduty!
By Tabitha
I bought this bumper after buying a Bestop Highock rear from JCW and receiving it damaged. I hoped for the best with this one. It came packaged very well and didn't have a scratch on it. It is pretty heavy, and very sturdy. I love the finish. It's kind of like a bedliner finish but not as rough.

As for the installation... PITA! It took me about 5 hrs start to finish. I could probably do it again in about 2 or less, but uncertainties throughout dragged it out. You have to drill 4 holes to mount bolts, and while it came with a good template, it was hard to get to line up so I drilled them over a size larger. WIth all the other attaching points, I really don't see these 4 holes to be drilled necessary, but I plan on towing some items so I went ahead and did it. Unless you have tiny hands or are very ingenuitive, plan on dropping the gas tank. I preplanned the install and was on "E" so it made it super easy to drop it. Also, the larger bolts used for installing the braces/brackets were to short so I had to leave off the lock washers, but I used a thread sealer anyways so no big deal.

And lastly, the bumper quality was above standard. All welds were very clean, all holes lined up for the most part, and the coating is nice. In the end the bumper didn't line up exactly even.... maybe an 1/8 to a 1/4 of an inch off center. Again, no big deal. I would recommend and buy again.

Excellent Tow Rated Bumper!
By BlackSCRunner
Although when I bought this bumper it was not mentioned here, if you go to Smittybilt's website, you will see the receiver hitch is actually a class III which means it is tow rated for probably more than you would ever want to tow with your jeep! That is good news for those of us who use our jeeps to pull small boats, utility trailers etc... This bumper looks great, has very decent welds, nice finish, and is very heavy duty. It is a real pain in the but to get a couple of the bolts in. Although I did find it a lot easier once I got the right tool combo set up; ratchet with a looong extension and a wobble on the end. Go in from the wheel wells AFTER removing the plastic liners. Installed this thing looks great and really cleans up the rear end of the jeep. It should have come with something to fill the slots for the tire carrier (it came with a plate for the hinge side, but nothing for the latch side) since I am running it without the carrier I used the included plate on the hinge side, and I used the rubber fillers from a parking brake kit which fit perfectly to fill the slots for the latch side! The only other complaint is that a little powder coat was scraped off during shipping (thank you UPS) I am going to try to get some touch up paint from Smittybilt. If you like the way it looks I definitely recommend this bumper as it is very heavy duty and even tow rated!
