Types of Bumpers

FZJ80_YV · 03-05-08, 02:11 PM

Somebody knows about a front bumper for a big winch like the Warn 16.5ti or a Ramsey Patriot 15000?

I know about the WARN bumper, but I really don't like this bumper:

Warn Industries - Mounting Systems: Off-Road Winch Bumper

Although you can use a M12000.

you'll probably have to do some custom mods to most bumpers to fit a larger winch.

This would be the only thing I could think of if you don't like the ARB. You know how you want it to look, but I love the ARB...and its tried and true.

Have you looked into the Expedition One? not sure but it does look like it has more room than most.

I have a ARB bumper and larry from tall corrn cruisers has that expedition one bumper after going through moab this last weekend he had almost never touched a rock with it he was bumping on the tow hooks ..as for me it hit everything
but it works well in washington

If you're talking 80 series, Metal Tech is the place, Mark is the man!

I'm sure he can build you a sweet one off!

Killerkoff, what are you doing hanging out with werepogo? he's way too cool for you!

Knoll0351- I like that bumper but can't find it on ARB. Looked under winch bumpers...unless i'm blind, and that very well could be the case!

before you buy, note that the warn 9500, for example, is a bit over 6 " deep. The warn 12,000, 15,000,
etc is a bit over 9" deep, and the motor is on the opposite side. At least this was the case in 2007.

Expedition One Off-Road Equipment this is the website for the expedition one bumper its not on the ARB site.

FJCcrawler · 05-20-08, 04:33 PM

ARB should do the job, also I think shrockworks is coming out with a FJC bumper too.

Metal Tech Cage Products

Not sure on winch sizes, but that is one good looking bumper.

joebob2586 · 05-27-08, 11:43 AM

ARB and Expedition One are two different companies. I think you got confused.

joebob2586 · 06-02-08, 10:47 AM

this is the roktek bumper i have a contact if anyone is interested in ordering one.
