Hooke Road Stubby Front Bumper w/ Bull Bar & Winch plate (18-25 Jeep Wrangler JL & 20-25 Gladiator JT) - HE.3091
Power Stubby Bumper. The JL JT Stubby Front Bumper brings a bold, stylish, and functional upgrade to your vehicle. Its stubby design improves approach angles for off-road driving while featuring a stout tube grille guard for reinforced front-end protection. The unique upward-tapered winglets on both sides not only add to its aggressive character but also enhance clearance for rugged terrain. A shiny stainless steel plate decorates the center, creating a striking visual contrast, while honeycomb mesh panels on each side further elevate the bumper’s refined styling. For added utility, the bumper comes equipped with two 18W white LED spotlights to provide reliable illumination in low-visibility conditions, a winch plate rated up to 12,000 lbs, and robust D-ring mounts complete with 9,500-lb rated 3/4" D-rings. It also includes a flip-up license plate mount and offers an optional skid plate for extra underbody protection.
Rugged Construction. Built for strength and durability, this aftermarket front bumper is constructed from heavy-duty steel to endure the toughest off-road conditions. The grille guard is crafted from 1.97"×0.06" steel tubing, while the main bumper body is formed from 11-gauge (1/8-inch) steel plate. The winch plate and mounting structure are reinforced with 9-gauge (5/32-inch) steel plate, ensuring reliable performance when handling heavy recovery operations. The bumper is finished with a textured black powder coat that provides a rugged, sleek look while resisting chips, scratches, and rust. Additionally, the premium E-coating process applied to the interior ensures long-lasting protection against corrosion, keeping the bumper strong and stylish even after extended use in harsh environments.
Straightforward Installation. Installation is a straightforward bolt-on process that requires no cutting or drilling, though some wiring is necessary to connect the LED lighting. Some basic hand tools are required. The steel Jeep bumper is engineered to fit seamlessly on JL and JT models using factory mounting points. The installation process typically takes approximately one hour to complete.
