try and fab up your own? If you want a bumper, there's no real other option than to just get over it and pour out your wallet.

There is a bumper faq page in the faqs along with all the websites that sell them. If you check that out, you'll get a lot more options.

i really want a prerunner style bumper, but cant seem to find much and dont have time to make my own. i really like this one even though its made for a xj.

that is nice, I want one too. they say they will make custom ones so I am sure you could get one for a zj bolt on. That looks perfect not to heavy, holds a winch.

Gents,

I've seen the KOR and Proto bumpers take a lot of hits and never fail. They are well worth the cost.

That's the truth, they are EXPENSIVE. If ya want Just fab your own mine cost me around $400 with winch ( another story ), push bar, materials, paint and lights.


To start you will have this ( at least on my 97, not 100% sure if a 94 is the same?) CLICK ON PICS FOR BIGGER IMAGES and more.


You will need to make it like this

From there you can come out with 4" channel or plate and make what you want


With winch and lights, still have to get around to finishing it though


And it is all steel to handle abuse

the iceland bumpers are some of the best on the market. dont let the fiberglass scare you. my personal favorite is KMAs plain old bumper with nothing but some tow hooks on it.

this bumper minus the grill guard and light guards.
its basic, not bulky, holds the winch in instead of on the bumper and its cheap.


and whats with almost every home made bumper looking way too massive and disproportinate?
