JL Aluminum Rear Bumper - Featherweight Series

Solid Rear Bumper

The install was straight forward, I loved the raw aluminum look when it was delivered, so I had it powder coated clear. I get endless compliments on this bumper.

Fits and looks great

Love the look, fit and quality of the new bumper, packing was great as well. I ordered it bare aluminum and had it power coated locally, but with the way it was packaged I would not worry at all about ordering it from Next Venture powder coated. I figured out an installation hack for tightening the bottom bolt that goes into the side of the frame rail and tucks snugly against the bottom of the bumper. If you have a short 22mm O2 sensor socket (DuraTech DT701109A or equivalent) it will provide enough offset to use a 3/8" ratchet to get the bolt good and tight. Otherwise just some minor filing with a chainsaw file for some final fitting and it sits perfect. The only issue I am having now is getting the back up sensors dialed back in, which is a super common problem with any aftermarket bumper (I wish the Jeep didn't even have them).

Absolutely beautiful craftsman ship and work
