Hey guys, I'm getting tired of my jk being stock and looking to make some initial upgrades. My question is, how struck are the cops up here in Canada about running stubby bumpers on the highway? I have heard a few stories about guys getting into some trouble for it. Also a buddy of mine sad something about a law being " your bumper must be as long or longer than original stock?

Any feed back would be appreciated.

Awesome, cause I'm up in edmonton Alberta actually. I'm leanin towards a stubby cause if weight factor and the clearance. But I would like something a bit bigger to hold up to a deer hit. Decisions decisions!!

I appreciate your guy's feed back.

I personally don't see a stubby bumper being a problem with deer and accidents. If you hit a deer going back road speeds or highway speed and hit a deer or car I don't think a stubby or full bumper will make or break your jeep. Plus those plastic bumpers prob won't do much for that anyways.

We're lucky in Ontario vehicle modification laws are pretty relaxed.

Oh and FYI. If you collide with a deer always say the deer hit you. When you call it in say your car got hit by a deer. I've heard people get at fault for hitting animals. The deer entered your lane. Treat like you would a car coming into your lane.

Man not gonna lie buying a jeep was the greatest feat yet. I am completely shocked at the response time and helpfulness of this forums members. Before owning a jeep I didn't get what people meant when they said " it's a jeep thing". Now the picture is becoming ever so clear. So I think I'm gonna scratch the expedition one full width and go with the psc brawler lite.
