The Brawler Lite front bumper for JK is a grille-width, high clearance bumper designed to combine hard core off-road performance with full features. This bumper is fabricated from 3/16" plate steel, CNC laser-cut and precision brake-formed into a low profile, high clearance design. The ends of the bumper extend far enough to protect the lower corner of the JK grille, but not far enough to hinder tire clearance or tire access to vertical obstacles. This product ships as bare steel—it will need to be painted or powder coated prior to final installation. We do not offer a powder coat option for this item.

3/16" Plate Steel Construction

Lighter than bumpers constructed of 1/4" plate, but faceted design and internal gussets yield superior strength.

CNC Laser Cut & Brake Formed

Precision fit with consistent quality from unit to unit. Cleaner edges than plasma or flame-cut components.

"Stubby" Width

Allows maximum clearance for huge tires with suspension fully compressed and wheels turned all the way. Allows tires access to vertical obstacles when approached at an angle.

Multi-Faceted Design

The best possible ground clearance and approach angles available without cutting Jeep's frame. Multiple bends also provide greater structural strength than flat, un-bent plate.

High Clearance Recovery Shackle Tabs

Angled for maximim obstacle clearance and approach angle. Designed to conform to the angles of the bumper to reduce hang-ups when approaching steep obstacles. CNC machined from 1" plate steel for ultimate strength. Shackle tabs are optional.

Captured Grade 8 Mounting Bolts

Easy bolt-on installation without having to be a contortionist to hold a wrench on to both ends of the fastener.

Internal Strengthening Gussets

Plate steel gussets, strategically placed to brace winch mounting area.

Winch Mount On Top

Allows for maximum strengthening of the winch mounting area with internal gussets. Recessed winch mounting is either weaker or much heavier due to the thicker plate steel required to adequately strengthen the winch mount.

Recessed OE Fog Light Mounts

Provides re-use of factory fog lamps, protects them in recessed buckets with CNC laser-cut mounting flanges.

Fog Light Harness Mounting Holes

Quickly and easily re-install the factory fog light harness. Correctly placed holes accept the factory Push-in loom holders.

Optional Brawler Bar

Protects winch, grille and radiator from trail hazards and potential rollover damage. Provides a measure of front-roll protection. Visible from the driver's seat, acts as a "feeler" when approaching steep obstacles.

DOM Tubing (Optional Brawler Bar)

Much stronger than HREW welded seam tubing.

Plate or DOM Gussets (Brawler Bar)

Choose from plate style or tube style gussets. Fully strengthens the Brawler Bar. Fully welded, strength can not be matched by bolt-on bars and stingers, or those without gussets.

Swaybar Disconnect Protection

Part of the optional Lower Skid, protects the vulnerable and expensive electronic swaybar disconnect mechanism from rock damage.
