The rear of an XJ takes the hits when you back off a ledge or drop off a rock, and the factory bumper and corners are not built for it. Add a full size spare and the tailgate has to carry it too.
The Rock Hard 4x4 Patriot Series Rear Bumper wraps the corners in 1/4in plate steel, tucks an overhang under the tub as a skid, and keeps a 2in receiver in the center. Choose the tire carrier version for up to a 38in spare on a dual bearing hub with a dual-stage latch, plus CB and Hi-Lift jack mounts. Order the version that matches your fenders, standard or Bushwacker Pocket or Flat flares, bolt it on with no welding and go wheel.
