The Rugged Ridge Arcus Front Stubby Bumper for Wrangler JL and Gladiator JT is anything but your typical budget-minded bumper. The Arcus represents a daring design departure from the typical, with an alluring stamped-steel body usually reserved for bumpers costing twice the price.
This patented design utilizes a high-strength 11-gauge steel shell surrounding a 1/4-inch thick steel winchplate, capable of holding most model winchs up to a 12.5k lb. rating (accepts Hawse or roller-style fairleads). The Arcus is no lightweight when it comes all those cool options you find on pricier bumpers either, only the Arcus Stubby Bumper Set makes them standard equipment.
Take Rugged Ridge's massive 1-inchthick recovery hooks that literally scream HARDCORE...each hook is dual cross-drilled so Rugged Ridge accept both 7/8 and 3/4-inchD-rings. Clever recesses in the bumper offer direct frame access for effective lifting of the Jeep with a hi-lift jack.
Built-in fog light pockets accent the overall appearance and accept both factory Sport & Sahara fog light assemblies with no modification. Of course, LED lighting can be fitted using available mounting brackets (11232.23/11232.24). The Arcus Stubby Front Bumper features a high-quality satin black powder coat finish with a fine texture, because nobody said brawny can't be beautiful. Patent Pending.
