Poison Spyder Crawler bumper.
Winch cover easy on and off.
No mud and rocks packed in winch hole to clean out. Part of my Build Jeep Better plan. Wife said OK when I told her it was free.

Poison spider stuff is always so nice looking.

Interesting are the reservoirs protected by it?

Yes from the front, no from the sides unless you put the endcaps on.

I installed a Rugged Ridge Spartacus bumper with a winch plate and the Overrider bar ...and a X-Bull winch . Oh and it does retain the factory fog lights and it clears the Mojave skid plate with no modifications !

Looks great and lots cheaper than Mopar version. Any photos of the this new bumper / original Mojave skid plate interface?

Looks great! Did the factory Rubi Skid plate not fit/usable with this new bumper & winch or did you just like the Warn skid plate better?

The factory steel skid plate didn’t fit with the warn bumper, but now that it’s done I do like the warn better. Better approach angle and ground clearance I think.

And it was all of $170 for that skid plate.

Do have a photo of how far back the Warn skid plate extends? I have Mojave and the skid needs to extend past the pillars to protect the factory Fox shock reservoirs mounted there.

I don’t, but can take one later.

Let me know if this helps, or if you need other angles. I don’t have a Mohave, so don’t know where the shock res goes.

What model do you have Summitdan? Is that Rubicon?

Thanks!

It may work... The length looks like it would just barely go back far enough. Here's what the Mojave stock skid plate and reservoir looks like that I pulled from another post (My Mojave hasn't arrived yet). Also included a markup of your photo to where the shock reservoir would be. It appears the Warn skid may go back far enough, but it attaches differently. Your's appears to have a bracket from the inside that may interfere with the reservoir, I'll have to see if I can pull up the install instructions for Warn skip plate to see where is attaches and if there are brackets that hold it place. My mystery continues... I appreciate your help!!!
