Reviews: Smittybilt Classic Rock Crawler Rear Bumper (Black) - 76750

pretty easy for the weekend mechanic. be prepared to drop the rear of the gas tank a couple inches to gain access to four of the bolts. all the bolt holes do line up with my 1992 YJ.

It looks great,but you realize how big the fuel tank is now.

The bumper installed right can tow stuff. You could do this bumper with out dropping tank but just drop tank a little makes it so much easier and dropping a tj tank well pretty easy guys so don't sweat it it will go faster .if you have to drill holes or don't have to like in my case I would go just a little bit bigger cuz the holes don't quite line up but that's your choice but bumper nice like it and it does have towing rating even called smittybuilt to make sure

2 weeks after installing the bumper, I was rear ended by another vehicle. The bumper took the impact successfully with only a few minor scratches from the collision. This bumper saved my restoration from any further damage.

This bumper will do everything that i need it to do. A word of caution, this thing is heavy, so use a jack and jack stands when installing it. I have a few busted knuckles from trying to hold it, line up holes and install mounting hardware. Overall this is exactly what I wanted.

Clean look, the only issue I had was the old jeep owner had welded the old bumper on... oh well the new one is on right!

The hitch and bumper are very nice quality, looks great too. There is only one hitch, pun intended, the back of the bumper, the mating surface to the frame is not flat. The hitch tube and weld beads protrude out from the back mounting plate. Causing it to hit the frame and a 1/4-3/8ths inch gap in the middle between the frame and bumper, and also causes the inner bolts to barely penetrate the threads making it a very weak mount to the frame. Poor craftsmanship to say the least in this aspect. But is my only complaint about the bumper. I would recommend, but with warning about the hitch tube issue, as I will now have to remove the bumper and modify a brand new bumper, in order to fix the issue so it will mount correctly.

Great bumper for the price. Heavy duty, good finish. Would be 5 star, but the mounting holes were WAY off. 2hr of modification. I’m a machinist, but if I weren’t, this would have taken a full day. So 4 stars for a metal worker, probably 2 stars for an office worker.

the rear bumper fit perfect but had some issues with the coating. manufacturer offered to let me send pics of damage then would be willing to let me send it back for replacement. i asked to just send me some coating and i would take care of it myself. not an option. all in all a very nice bumper at a great price.

To mount gas tank removal is required to use all mounting points. To avoid tank removal I bought frame tie ins but now I have a heavy well mounted bumper and it looks great. It cant be beat for the price.

Looks great and for the price really solid, not cheap at all
