Opinions?

Looking at the new MBRP front bumper, Anyone running any of their products? your opinion?

i love my purejeep front stubby with winch mount.

I'm not really feeling the whole stubby thing. I was thinking about a full or mid width...

I had not seen it, so I had to google it. Nice bumper. If that's your style, go for it.

I'm happy with my Shrockworks Mid-width. Plus they are local (here in Houston). So kept my money in TX

BTW, N2rock, Love the videos on your website! Cant Friggin Wait till the 23rd!!!

They all look good imo, not a fan of full widths, especially with those flying nun bushwacker pocket fenders, but they're ok. I like my Shrocks stubby for now, it has better streamlining than the MBRP stubby which is just chopped on the ends. I'm considering giving mine to my wife and doing something custom with some kind of different stinger on mine down the road.

few JKO pics of MBRP bumpers, they look decent...

the full width gets in way when you are working steep approaches

i run a full width mopar bumper and at full stuff and wheels turned, my 35" tires rub on the end of the bumper. Jon & Bobby keep wanting to break out the saws-all. I think i might give in soon

I kinda like the bushwhacker flying nuns. the one you see in the pics is the one I'm getting. they changed the design some for production, but agreed to sell me this one.

Hey long as you're happy that's all that matters really. The full width would at least look better in my humble opinion with the stock flares but that's just me. Good bumpers regardless.

Thanks, Sas. If it gets here and I dont like it...

SO.......who wants to help me install this thing? lol. Got it coming before the 23rd. Bunper and flying nuns. oh and possibly the third row seat... not sure if it will get here before then....

Now I gotta build me some sliders....

Well, if you weren't a half-day drive away....

I'd like to help you install that thing, but you will have to come to San Antonio.

Would gladly help as well, but damn 5hrs & 48mins...

let us know. I may be up to a road trip to corpus!

I know I'm way the hell off from everyone... I figure, Its a BUMPER! How hard could it be?! I've installed a Ranchhand on my dads truck before, this cant be much harder than that.... Thanks, Jonsjeep, I'll keep yall posted on the exact ETA, they ship on Fri. If any of you guys and gals wanna show up when it gets here, You're more than welcome and I'll will even feed you and put you up for the night. (four bedroom house, extra couch, and a decent air matress)

My only worry is about the install of those Flying Nun Fenders (thats how I will forever refer to them now,,,Thanks Sasquach). Any tips?

The ETA is sometime around the middle of next week, so I'm probably going to take the old fenders off tomorrow or this weekend to save time just in case they dont arrive untill Friday. Maybe I wont be up all night installing them the night before we meet at Hidden Falls


Sascha, Call you tomorrow amigo.

if you want. you can swing up here to SA early and stay at my place Friday night. We can know out the fenders Friday night and then leave from my house bright and early Saturday to go to Hidden Falls. let me know

I may take you up on that offer. I'm gonna start taking off the fenders today and If the stuff arrives on Wed or Thurs, I may not be able to wait. I have no patience. Just ask Twylla.

I've got a bag full of tools. if ya want, you can bring the bumper with ya to hidden falls and we can knock that out pretty quick with all hands on deck. fingure 4 of us can get it done in about 30 - 45min. maybe less, but i always like to estimate on teh high end. or jons on friday night. that's a good two hours off your drive to hidden falls.

Thanks, I may do that. Just depends on when the bumper gets here. got my front fenders taken off tonight!

Thats gonna leave a mark!

I'm gonna do a write-up on the install i think...

::arms crossed & tapping foot:: lol
