#JLWranglerMods #JeepBumperInstall #JeepGladiatorMods
=======================================
The EcoDiesel isn't here yet but that doesn't stop the mods! My friend Corey picked up a Rugged Ridge Arcus bumper and Smittybilt X2O winch and popped over to the garage to install it. This went together a lot easier then I thought, probably because working on newer Jeeps means no rusted bolts.

I'm liking it! Those winch hooks are massive!

@hollywood21639 4 года назад

I really like big hooks on that bumper. They'd look really good powder coated red. Those hooks look like a warthog or a puma. Or some other imaginary creature. 😁

@izzy3155 Год назад

It looks great. Thanks for the install walk through. Just ordered the same bumper.

@iamblaineful 4 года назад

I like the stamped look, its different from everyone else running steel bumpers or aftermarket welded plate. I would have sent the hooks out to be powder coated to match the red on his hood vinyl, personal aesthetic choice, but overall it added a nice simple and aggressive look while reusing the factory fogs. Hopefully it was budget friendly given the weight that could take a bit of a pounding in my neck of the woods, I'm 30mins from the Rubicon Trail and Fordyce Creek.

@TrailAdventuresTV 3 года назад

That bumper looks amazing and is way easier to install then the Warn winch bumper. Great job gentlemen.

@TheGraphicLibrary 3 года назад

I did this same setup on my 2021 JT Willys. Lost an inch in front end height. Also, trying to get that air box back in place was a real trick, had to grease up the rubber plugs. Thanks for the video though, it really helped.

@TheStoryTillNow 4 года назад

Bumper looks really nice. :D

@Casey250 4 года назад

Ya man! Just wish I was installing in my rig haha.

@JohnnyVeritas 4 года назад

I loved everything about that setup except for the bolt on bull bar: only because somebody that doesn't know that it isn't a solid welded piece, could easily break it if you weren't right there to stop them (somebody backs into it, or ties off on it, etc). I got a similar, solid steel EAG bumper on Amazon for about $220, that I put on my Jeep, and I love it. Great video guys!!!

@Casey250 4 года назад

I thought about the same thing. With those monster hooks sticking up above the bumper, I think it looked pretty good with out the bar.

@eugeneenslow8563 2 года назад

Looking good 👍

@Whiteandsonsgarage 4 года назад

Awesome video mate, looks so dam good, looks way better than factory

@Casey250 4 года назад

Ya the factory plastic on is junk

@supercharged00gtp 4 года назад

looks great, maybe do a factor 55 link instead of the hook and not needing the zip tie. I have the same wince and love it on my JLUS

@travis5742 4 года назад

I’m loving my ecodiesel wrangler! Funny thing is I bought this same bumper and winch lol now install will be a breeze!

@Casey250 4 года назад

Ya it was a simple install for sure!!

Hello. I just decided to stop by Your Channel. It attracted me :)

@jesseklooster8175 4 года назад

Hopefully next week. I would apologize but I didn't even click bait the title!!

@@Casey250 haha deffinetly not your fault. I though I somehow missed the delivery video. 😂😂

@trevorknight8435 3 года назад

How has the bumper held up? Was the finish durable any rusting? Especially when compared to the factory bumper on yours. Thanks love the channel.

@chrismcmorris306 2 года назад

Love your videos. I ordered the same bumper for my 21 Willys JLU but for some reason the winch plate doesn't fit. Seems the tabs are too wide. How did the fitment look when installing the winch plate?

@MrCanadianbacon73 4 года назад

Cool bumper

@Casey250 4 года назад

Ya bro!

@EDubiton 3 года назад

I'm a fan and considering this bumper. How much trouble would it be to paint those two giant hooks a different color considering they are already powder coated?

@FlyFish402 4 года назад

Rockhard 4x4 does make a winch plate that goes over the plastic bumper. I like the look of an aftermarket bumper with winch better though.

@Casey250 4 года назад

Agreed!

@mikehoffman3690 4 года назад

Good look bumper.

@Casey250 4 года назад

Agreed!

@StraightOuttaRockies 4 года назад

Are there any differences in terms of strength between RR Arcus and Mopar Steel bumper?

@riggitywrecked9442 4 года назад

Man, I thought this was your Jeep. I got all excited for nothing lol

@Casey250 4 года назад

Rest assured, when my Jeep arrives there will be a huge vlog just about taking delivery. I am fingers crossed that it comes in next week and there is no health risks for the dealer to prepare it and for me to take delivery.

@wyattfabian8190 3 года назад

I'm guessing the stock steel skid plate would not work once this is installed? Anyone have an idea if thats true or not?

@jasonkus4510 4 года назад

Looks good. Just need that lower skid and elephant tusks to be cut off! Not sure why jeep put those on in the first place. I guess it’s like the crash bar on JKU’s we all cut off. Can’t wait to see your new toy.

@Casey250 4 года назад

Ya - I will be evaluating hacking mine off. I am going with a stock bumper to start off. Really crossing my fingers I can bring home the EcoDiesel before things get worse, but it will be what it will be.

@frankmancina22 2 года назад

Does the control stay outside or does it go inside the Jeep?

@pittste88 Год назад

i have the same bumper, hard af to get on tho

@TRD_Cueto 2 года назад

Nice! How ya liking it?

@Thexkidd 4 года назад

Like it

@ati573 4 года назад

Nice, I have this color jeep. It definitely looks better in person. I get a lot of compliments. The bumpers are to bad, but that bumper isn't good though.

@Casey250 4 года назад

Ya I like it too. Good color.

@TheBeardedJeeper 4 года назад

Pretty neat I like the hooks. Install seemed overly complicated

@Casey250 4 года назад

Took longer to deconstruct the factor bumper.

@RollinRagu 4 года назад

Your timing couldn't be better! My winch showed up today. Bumper hasn't shipped yet. Hope it gets to me before EVERYTHING is shut down. For that matter, hope your JL doesn't get hungup in transit!

@RollinRagu 4 года назад

BTW, skid plate is plastic on Rubicon.

@Casey250 4 года назад

Ah - more learning!! Im hoping I can get the JL so I can start a build series while everyone is on lock down.

@dadventuretv2538 2 года назад

Hey man. About to pull the trigger on the Arcus front bumper for my 2021 JT. But website doesnt have the tubular overrider bar available for the Gladiator, only the stamped steel one. It only shows the tubular bar available for the Wrangler. I called them and asked why and was told it was because the tubular leans backwards towards grill but stamped steel one is straight up and down. I’ve watched just about every vid and looked at every photo i can find and it seems clear that the tubular Overrider bar actually leans forward, and I cannot see any reason why it would not work on a Gladiator. From your install can you see any reason why the tubular overrider bar would not work on a Gladiator? Not holding you to anything, just curious your thoughts since you did the instal.

@mikepierson3097 3 года назад

Can you please ask your bud if the fog lights illuminate the road properly? They are recessed so far back that it seems the road immediately in front won’t be lit. Thanks!

@johnniesmith5489 2 года назад

I was thinking the same thing.

@anthonyaguila5685 3 года назад

What’s the thickness ??

@Danny_Ruth 2 года назад

I’ve got the same bumper in my garage waiting to go on my Gladiator! Do you think a winch could be installed after the bumper without having to remove the bumper? I don’t have the winch yet and want to go ahead and put the bumper on

@Casey250 2 года назад

It's been a while since I install this but I think the answer is no as it is so tight to the grill that the bumper would need to be off to fit it in.

@eugeneenslow8563 2 года назад

The lower plastic "skidplate" is actually called a splash guard.

@Casey250 2 года назад

Ya its a metal guard on the steel bumper jeeps.

@mjenner89 3 года назад

Can we get an update please?

@samsoncarr9950 4 года назад

Love those tow hooks!! Are they made for the jk

@Casey250 4 года назад

Don't think so.

@samsoncarr9950 4 года назад

@@Casey250 I wonder how difference there is in the bolt pattern on the frame horns from the JK to the JL

Yes they make this bumper for the JK

I have the rough country hydrid bumper, with d ring mounts, I like the look of those hooks, as long as they would fit.

@melvin5818 3 года назад

Does the winch touch the grill? Seems very close

Not quite but very close

Looks like you totally skipped installing the winch plate. I think that may be the hardest part.

@codytaz 4 года назад

Does rugged ridge sell the bumper hooks just by themselves?

@Casey250 4 года назад

I didn't see them, I wonder if they would sell them on their own if you contacted customer support. They would be cool to put on the rear and delete the entire bumper.

@codytaz 4 года назад

Casey 250 I contacted them to see if they had them atleast for the front, but I’ll make the suggestion about the rears.

@codytaz 4 года назад

Casey 250 just got this from the company. Thanks for sending in your inquiry. Unfortunately the Arcus tow hooks are not available as a separate retail item at this time. I am unaware of any plans to make them a stand-alone part, however, it might be something that is done in the future so just keep any eye on our website for new product releases.

@Casey250 4 года назад

@@codytaz Ah cool! thanks for the update.
