Jeep Wrangler TJ/LJ 1997-2006, MetalCloak Frame-Built Front Bumper #231000, Hi-Crawler Caps and Hi-Mount Shackles

A stock TJ or LJ bumper leaves the grille exposed and offers little to hook a strap to when someone needs a pull. This pre-configured build suits the owner who wants a winch-ready front end without choosing every piece separately. The 3/16in steel Frame-Built base replaces the factory bumper and sits the winch low, so air still reaches the Seven Slot grille. The 43in Hi-Crawler Caps add built-in approach angles that help the nose climb over ledges, and the Hi-Mount Shackles take 3/4in D-rings or soft shackles for recovery. Bolt it to the frame, add a winch when ready, and the front end is set for the trail.
