I passed this info on to our Media guys we should be able to get you something like that in a week or so@Artec I would love to see a good side-by-side picture of the cut versus the no cut Bantam rear bumper.
Additionally, it be nice, on the website to see the price for the additional skid plates, and the receiver you said you have.
I’d love to be able to know what my complete cost is going to be and to know exactly how it’s going to look. Thanks!
Mine just came in this week. It’ll go to powder coat on Tuesday and then go on once it comes back. There are photos on the website but here’s another of the artec gladiatorPictures anyone?
Artec has a receiver option getting released as soon as they get back from powder coat so it will be tucked up behind the license plateLooks so good.
I have the tow package which I assume I would need to remove?
Is that receiver rated similarly to the factory tow package? I had thought about going with a high clearance bumper before, but every aftermarket bumper with a high clearance receiver that I saw labeled them as an "accessory" receiver and they couldn't rate them for actual towing.Artec has a receiver option getting released as soon as they get back from powder coat so it will be tucked up behind the license plate
We have it listed as an Accessory receiver. The process for getting receivers for bumpers tow rated has an astronomical cost as well as Insurance liability's our insurance company will not allow us to say it is tow rated. But it is way more stout than the factory receiver, We have towed a small trailer offroad with ours out at sand hollow a few times as well as local trails however, I can not say that it is Rated to tow !Is that receiver rated similarly to the factory tow package?

I'd hate to give up being able to pull an over-landing trailer for a bit more clearance.
I still can’t get over how good this bumper looks lol. Seriously well thought out. Definitely could use a receiver for a bike rack so that’s great to hear.Artec has a receiver option getting released as soon as they get back from powder coat so it will be tucked up behind the license plate
Is it back from powder coating? Waiting to see how this installs and how much it cost.Artec has a receiver option getting released as soon as they get back from powder coat so it will be tucked up behind the license plate

I was very happy with the bumper. Very high clearance with a lot of protection. I didn’t do the install but it’s fairly straightforward if you’re comfortable cutting into your vehicle.do you have any updates on how the bumper has held up/performed.

That's great, thanks for the responseI was very happy with the bumper. Very high clearance with a lot of protection. I didn’t do the install but it’s fairly straightforward if you’re comfortable cutting into your vehicle.
I sold the jeep but its a high quality bumper so im sure it has held up fine.
