Mojave Aftermarket Bumpers

Did you finish mounting this bumper? I’m looking at this same bumper for my Mojave.

Did you ever get this bumper? Curious if it installs with the factory skid plate ..

fab fours front Lifestyle bumper smittybilt winch and factor 55 flat link. Reused the Mojave skid plate but had to shift it down and use the lower holes to mount it back up. A little gap on the sides but acceptable.

I am in the process of mounting a Venator bumper on my Mojave. The Skid plate mounts that the reservoirs attach to are going to be the issue for this bumper.

*** Update ** after sleeping on it last night, and staring at the brackets all day on my desk while I was working, I found a cleaner (somewhat) solution, plus no welding is needed so most can do it this way as long as you have even the cheap hand grinder from Harbor freight. I ended up notching the factory brackets to fit around the lower winch support bar instead of chopping and welding the two sets of brackets. This allows me to attach them both with all the holes they are designed with and not have to worry about stich welding the brackets. I also had to remove most of the nutsert heads (the inside edge of both frame horns) to allow the new bumper brackets and the winch support bracket to mount (it is designed for the sport I think that won't have the nutserts). I then put the factory skid brackets on top of the bar and bolted it all to the truck. Will get some pictures in the daylight tomorrow. I need to find something without chopping the factory skid plate now to protect the reservoirs, and I think it will be completed. I have updated this post with a copy of the template I made off of one of the brackets showing the area I notched to fit the bracket around the bumper support bar.

I've got the same bumper to install on my Mojave. Did you end up keeping the factory skid plate protecting the front resevoir? I'd love to see a few pics. Thanks for the diagram

Can you post something me pics from the front? Also did you use your OEM fogs? Also a pic of the front cam to see how much interference there is. Thanks.

That does help, no way to get approval from the wife as it is her truck, LOL. Thank so for the pics. Also what is the distance between the bars just above the fairlead as I have a light bar I would like to install there too. It’s a 20” double row.

I love your bumper. Which one is it?

That is a GREAT looking bumper and one of the best I’ve seen. Do you know the approximate weight?

Thanks for the detailed info!! And by the way, LOVE your artwork as well! I have a great fondness for snakes, and rattlesnakes are amongst my favorites. The Mojave rattlesnake is the first thing I thought of when I saw the Mojave gladiator, and plan to make the snake part of the theme of my truck as well. Congrats on building a beautiful truck!!
