The ugly bumper thread

[Chris]

I've seen some seriously ugly bumpers out there on TJs. Most of them are homemade (@RINC, your old bumpers qualify), but some of them are lesser known brands.

Either way, let's start a thread here dedicated to ugly bumpers you've seen on TJs.

This is so ugly it should be outlawed!

Any sort of grumper makes me lose faith in jeep owners sometimes....

I have that bumper!

It’s A Ranch Hand and they don’t make it anymore.

Im curious as to what kind of increase in gas milage this provides. Wonder if it’s noticeable.

I think we know why

You can really tell that some of these bumpers were designed by some real hillbillies

I’m pretty sure that’s the Ranch Hand bumper:

What’s funny is Ranch Hand is considered to be among the best bumper and grille guard manufacturers for 1/2-ton and larger trucks. Some of their 3/4 or 1 ton bumpers weigh as much as 300 lbs...

 

[Chris]

Look on the bright side @RINC, given that you know what it is now, you may be able to get some money out of it since someone out there will probably want it.

That thing must weigh 100 lbs easily!

 

[RINC]

And now I know !

Man, those bumpers gonna make me some cash !

I can imagine my Craigslist ad .....

Show Me The Money !

Thanks y'all.

let's face it though, almost any "stinger" style bumper is a steaming pile. Here is mine. LOL

 

[Zorba]

I actually like this. Too damn heavy, and it doesn't need the under-fender "deflectors", but I like it.

 

[Midtenn]

I had a stinger, cut it off and now much happier.
As advised, the paint didn’t match but during the summer I’ll strip it down and repaint it.
