Anyone seen an AEV front bumper made for a JK installed successfully on a JL or JT? Looks like most JK bumpers work. Wondering how it will look with the JT Rubicon fenders.

They’re supposedly releasing they’re JL and JT specific bumpers early 2020. I’m waiting for then before I decide on a bumper.

I saw that but I am really looking to see if a used AEV front bumper will fit my Gladiator. I like the look and it would be much lower cost.

I spoke with AEV this week and the stubby version is supposed to be released mid-December and the full length version in mid-January. ?
Unfortunately you will still need to buy a winch plate for these “winch-ready” bumpers.

Good looking at first glance but no Shackle tabs is a head scratcher, as is ready to be winch ready. They won’t be cheap either I bet.

The shackle tabs are there below the fog lights. They are gray.

I have no problem paying for quality. I have their front and rear bumpers on my JK and they have been bulletproof.

I really liked the AEV front and rear bumpers on my Winter Edition JK. I was hoping to get the AEV JL/JT designed ones, but I'm done waiting for them. I've ordered the Mopar 3-piece metal bumper instead.

I know, right? Don’t worry about it though, dates are super hard to figure out; they have letters AND numbers?!? Honestly, in all of my 35 years of experience, I’ve never seen such a thing. Must’ve been one of those Einsteins that invented it.

Dates are confusing. Especially first dates. I mean, what do you say? Take them to some place fancy? Red Lobster?

Oh, those dates. Darned Europeans have to mess stuff up and put the month and day in the wrong order, and use dots instead of slashes?
