Next venture or hepta would get my vote.
I will say next venture looks like my evo bumper but with even more clearance.

 

[Camaroboi13]

1 or 3 would be my suggestion, in no particular order. Just got this one for my wife for Mother’s Day

$411 shipped, couldn’t really say no. It wasn’t my first choice but the one I picked out has been sold out for some time now.

Rival 4x4.. or ARB Bondi Deluxe

Some of you ive talked to in person or on other socials about this but im down to 5 front front bumper options and im curious to see who prefers what. These are all tight high clearance options and all but one involve chopping the frame. If im using your pic I apologize in advance.

please vote for one or make another HIGH CLEARANCE wildcard suggestion. Pics should be in order of poll

TBH these are all sick but I love both Savvy's. I'm considering one now. Do you happen to know if any of the options you showed can be fitted to keep the stock skid brackets and skid? I have a Mojave and I like my steel silver skid i need the bracket to hold my Remote Resi's.

Tbh I don’t like any of the aftermarket bumpers that are blocky.
I’m planning on the aluminum or steel factory style bumper by dv8

thats a lot of exposed bolts and hard angles and lines for a truck that is quite smooth for a brick. While i would prefer more round edges on Jeep bumpers, most stubby or crawler bumpers are designed to take a serious hit and hold 10- 12k worth of load and multiple angles. A a thick plate of steel with hard angles achieves this a lot easier and cheaper than stamped sheet steel. personally i want a mopar steel stubby but i guarantee you that the winch plate underneath will be a unit. But I'm also not gonna cry when that bumper takes a hit and folds like paper, cus it simply isn't designed to. I'm still heavily considering the Savvy aluminum cus that hoop is a real hoop and will actually stop a deer from going through your windshield or radiator.

Artec with the Savvy 1 as a honorable mention

I can find out for you on the black one. I doubt the silver one works because you can to cut the frame horns off

Too big for my purposes but the bondi stubby is pretty nice looking!

Just installed a Rock Hard 4x4 Aluminum Patriot front bumper on our Mojave with a 12k Badlands Apex winch. Good fit, decent instructions, large winches are a little snug, but they fit. I like that the shock reservoirs don't need to be relocated, and being aluminum it's only 38 pounds.

The top picture one would be my preferred one especially with that color it would be fairly close in color matching with mine.
I went with the "I'm trying to have a big chunk of metal there in case of deer and holds winch n lights affordable. If the $$$ wasn't a issue I would have looked into ARB or something like that. Not as fond of stubby bumpers.

 

[Wild thang]

Gen right
High clearance clean looks very light!!

 

[Chief_jeep]

Just got my artec high clearance bumpers installed and I think they look way better in person

 

[whiteglad]

I would not want to cut the frame.
