Found ARB front bumper

The real question I have is why would someone put something that heavy and obtrusive on the front of their TJ?
Even if you don't rock crawl, there are far better (and lighter) options out there than that boat anchor of a front bumper.
What blows my mind even more is what these things cost when they were brand new.
I guess it goes to show that just because you tack a brand name onto it like ARB doesn't mean it's going to be a well designed product.

I never understood the appeal of the ARB bumper. It's very big and very heavy and very obtrusive, both physically and aesthetically. Some people are into that.

Maybe you are getting mixed up with the Mopar/AEV bumpers.

Oh no, people are into it and to those who are, that's fine.
I'm just pointing out the fact that that bumper is somewhere close to 90 lbs. and offers absolutely nothing that a much better bumper doesn't offer.
People are either buying it for the brand name, the look, or both. From a performance aspect it's probably one of the worst bumpers you could buy.
you’re correct, it was the AEV bumper. wrong three letter abbreviation
The ARB front bumper protects the fenders and allows better approach angles than stock positioned bumpers. ARB stuff is designed for true Roo protection which makes them heavy but hell for stout. They also require surgery to use with Anti-Rock sway bar. Would've bought one if it wasn't for the weight and surgery required.
