Rugged Ridge Arcus Front Bumper

[LoJac963]

I think I have finally narrowed bumpers down. I like the Rugged Ridge Arcus. I have searched and only come up with a few pics. If you have this bumper can you post a pic here. Also, some sites have stated there is no skid plate compatible with this bumper and some pics I have seen with the steel skid plate show it not connected to the bumper. Is this a concern or deal killer for this bumper?

It works with the Rubicon skid plate.

I got mine off eBay last fall. Was about $480.

This is the bumper I want to go with as well, any downsides to it?

Rugged Ridge makes a skid plate for this bumper. I don't have it yet, but there is one available.

Only downside IMO is strength. It’s really just a winch plate with a stamped steel cover. It’s not that it feels cheap or won’t take some abuse, but it’s also not one of the 1/4” thick steel fabricated tree bashers.

I had a Mopar steel bumper and it felt very comparable to that bumper.

Would any of you guys be willing to grab me a measurement of the depth of the bumper, from the rear of the bumper to the front edge of the hooks if that makes sense. I am curious how it compares to some of the more stout bumpers out there.

Thanks in advance!

I went with the Arcus and an Evo 10s winch. This past weekend some tool decided to drift over to my side of the road and test out the Arcus ... those front hook took it like a boss! ... the bad part is the other truck wrapped it's self around the hooks and got into my suspension.

Hope all are ok! Good to know it can take it, unfortunate you had to find out that way.

Am I seeing this right? You crushed the front end of that truck without even damaging your license plate??

It works with the Rubicon skid plate.

Where did you get the license plate bracket?
