The Smittybilt XRC Atlas rear bumper has gone through extensive design and testing to meet stringent international pedestrian safety standards. As a result, the bumper is stylishly chiseled as well as being extremely strong and functional.
Great Bumper, made very well. Not too bad to install either.
Best thing since sliced bread. It’s was a really hard install and I had a professionally done.
When first installed it was tough to open, had to push and lift. With driving the gate / latch settled into place. I keep the latch lubricated with WD40 spray white lithium grease and it is easy to open. Love the bumper!
Well built bumper and carrier. I like the departure angle, highjack access points and all the mounting options on carrier. This bumper is very heavy, but it is worth its weight in what it provides.
Matches front bumper as designed, completes front and back appearance. Installation of main bumper was easy, adjustment of tire carrier was not as easy as I thought, it took a few times to get it right. Gerry-Can bases are not given a lot of room from actual bumper. Adjustments are very tight. Swing away tire rack is very much worth it. I can wash the rear window and tailgate much easier. I purchased the storage Cans for tools and winch accessories, works well. Very happy with purchase.
Make sure there’s no excess material on the carrier nut. Had to clean mine out before it would thread. Seems alright though. Goes to edge of rear tube fenders for good protection
This bumper has been on my jku just over 4 years now, and overall has been great, yes it’s adjustable, which is nice because I have had to adjust it, does need greased and lubed every month or two so if you can handle that it’s not bad at all, has been carrying a 35” tire, jack and one full jerry can 60% of the time, and 40% of the time 2 full jerry cans, it does rattle a little but planning on doing modifications in the future to work that out
I like the bumper a lot. I just have the usual complaints. The install instructions leave a lot to be desired. I have some parts and bolts left over I can’t figure out where they go. Also two of the main attachment bolt are really hard to fit into position. But overall I’m happy I bought the bumper. I bought it with the tire carrier and like that as well. Don’t like the latch much though. I think I have it adjusted properly but it is hard to open. I’m concerned one of these times it won’t open.
Q: how long does it take to ship ordered almost 4 month ago still have not received it and no response to emails. Answer this question
A: I can tell you I ordered a front bumper and a rear bumper with a tire carrier. 1 month on the front bumper, 2 1/2 months for the rear bumper with parts missing and had to have a local welding shop make the missing parts. Called Smittybilt as instructions say to, they said they couldn't get me the parts and I would have to ship the rear bumper back and reorder a new one. Still waiting on the tire carrier. Spoke to 4Wheelparts last week, good luck getting through to customer service for help by the way, was told still on back order...

Q: I've got a 2010 JK with a spare tire rack over the back, will the tire carrier interfere with the rack (hit each other). Answer this question

Q: I have a 2021 Jeep Wrangler JL. This product says it only fits the JK, but I can’t see the difference in the rear ends. Can this product also be used with the JLs or will Smittybilt produce a model capable of being used on the JLs? Answer this question
A: I wound not buy this for a JL. The bolts will not line up correctly on a JL mostly the bolts on the right and left side of the frame. I never tried it but they are different enough and it was a tight fit on my JK.
