Purchased a brand-new Rubicon bumper for my gladiator Rubicon. What do I have?

OE Replacement for Rubicon ( Mojave, Overland others too ) plastic bumpers:

• Application : Original Replacement for Sahara and Rubicon

6BU44RXFAA

OE Replacement for Sport plastic bumper:

https://www.quadratec.com/p/mopar/front-bumper-cover-jl-jt-6BU41RXFAC

• Application : Original Replacement for Sport Model

6BU41RXFAC



When you search for OEM fogs, you'll find 2 SKUs:

1 that works with 6BU44RXFAA , and 1 that works with 6BU41RXFAC. The latter one also works with the Offroad bumper, which the former does not. Obviously you can bracket and fabricate. It's just important to have correct information that the Sport does in fact have a different plastic bumper and different fog mounts.

I don’t know about any difference in part numbers but the mounting pattern is identical as I have one stock one and one replacement in my aftermarket bumper now with zero mods
(I hit a shopping cart on the freeway going up I -5 near La Jolla and other than a nice scrape on my skid plate as the cart disintegrate, the left fog light cracked)

Ok, this is crazy confusing. So if I order these fog lights, they will come with the brackets that will fit this Mopar off-road bumper?

If you have the Rubicon with the LED factory package, no, you will need to order the bracket. Other models I am not sure.

Looks promising:

• Fits Sport (MB1) and Mopar steel bumpers such as 82215691AD.
• Does not fit Rubicon-style three piece steel bumper.

This is your bumper, right? 82215691AD?

Since AllMoparParts says they work, you should be covered.

When you search that bumper, they even show those fogs:

I don't really care but I did take a quick look at MyMoparParts.com and they list the same bumper for the Sport models as the Rubicon, factory art number:
Front Bumper - Mopar (68293891AB)
2018-2020 Jeep Wrangler - 68293891ab

That's the steel bumper center section . Yes, it will work on Rubicon and Sport, and the rest of them.

That is the bracket kit I bought on Amazon to use the factory Rubicon LED fogs in the HD bumper. LED fogs were pulled out of my stock plastic bumper.

Again, been a year and no shake, hasn't lossened, no issues.

I did order this, thank you again. I will try there first and hope that it will work with the factory LED lights.

Looks a lot like the bracket I use. Mine uses the 4 tabs on the light and screws to the bumper with 2 screws.

 

[Chocolyle]

The one I have is just 2 on the light and 2 on the bumper. I have a link for it on my first post.

The lights themselves are stout, quite rigid, I bet it works just fine that way.

I got some led fog lights that are close to factory that i was running but couldn't run them on my Rugged Ridge bumper. They fit on my stock bumper though and the stock bumper had Halogen lights. I'd be willing to send them to you for the cost of shipping. I got nothing in them, they were sent to me by a company that makes lights. Let me know if you want them to see if they will work. Here's a few pictures of them

Let me know if your want them. I got no use for them at the moment. Not sure if they will work or not but it may be worth a shot.

Thanks bud, I ordered a bracket to hopefully be able to use my current lights on the bumper. I will let you know if that doesn’t work. Thank you so much I truly appreciate your offer.

I didn’t know his bumper existed but now that I do I really like it. Question about the shackle mount points - are there any pros/cons to think about with them being directly under the bumper vs. mounted to the front? If I think back to vector analysis from high school it would seem to me that a direct pull from the front would be better because I would think the mount under the bumper might lift up on the front of the Jeep vs pull straight. But maybe that’s better? it’s been a pretty long time since I took that class so maybe I got that wrong and/or maybe it doesn’t matter at all?
Aside from that, there are just way too many winch bumper choices out there.
