Rugged RIdge Arcus Front Bumper Question

[BAT]

you guys are making it hard to decide this or the MP 3 piece look alike mopar but in aluminum bumper.

Well anything you can do to keep the weight down and retain some of the aerodynamics will be helpful as long as your ok with the look, function, etc. I like the RR Arcus look as well as it came with a nice winch plate already if you plan to put in a winch. If your not putting in a winch know that there will be a very large opening at the top of the bumper and they do not make a cover for it so you would have to fab something yourself to close up that space

I just finished installing the RR Arcus bumper. No issue with the install all. Figment was perfect. Which plate was a bit snug and had to give it a few hits to make it align but I think that’s a good thing. Wasn’t anything to crazy. Did the install in my garage and added a warn winch and it took about 4hrs. From start to end. I have a Rubicon and the factory skid plate worked fine. Easy bolt on with no issues at all. Here’s som picks below.

I do want to change out my fenders now. Or maybe do a fender chop. We’ll see how long I can last with out another mod. ?‍

Not sure if it helps, but I have the RR Venator (stubby) front bumper. I'm mostly happy with the fit and finish although the thickness of the bumper metal aside from the winch tray is a bit thinner than I'd prefer.

I just installed the full width RR Venator. I love the look but am also a little disappointed with the thickness and coverage from the lower section skid plate. The sway bar disconnect seems really exposed and the stock steel skid was way sturdier... The winch tray support bracket also just barely hits the sway bar disconnect housing which I'm not sure if it's an issue but don't really like. Planning on contacting RR

I don't think the body of the bumper would hold up well in severe off-road situations where it got massaged up against rocks, although I could be wrong. I was also unimpressed with the coverage of the skid plate or whatever they call the lower section. The stock rubi skid was much better in both thickness and coverage. It looks decent, but I wouldn't buy again or recommend unless someone was simply interested in looks.

Thanks to all the Jeepers for the help with this project --- the hard part is done. Some bumper driving light issues to work though, otherwise solid. I couldn't be happier with the outcome.
