Reviews: Smittybilt XRC GEN1 Front Bumper

It’s awesome! Trying to configure where to put a license plate is tough though. Really easy to install. May need 2 people or a sawhorse setup for one...

Purchased this Smittybilt GEN 1 bumper for my 2020 jeep Wrangler Rubicon it’s a very good fit. I like the fact that it’s a little larger than the GEN two bumper to protect against deer collisions and provides strong off road protection. Will not accommodate factory fog lights I’m choosing to 7 inch round fog lights and the light bar. The Smittybilt gen 3 12k winch fit well.

Great quality & fast shipping! This was my first big mod. Love it!

It’s very well built and was pretty easy to install. Definitely a good buy for the price.

Its says doesn't fit JL..that's a mistake it really fit nice on my 2020 wrangler..neat look

5 stars for the product. It’s solid. Looks great on the JK. Doing a dry run, I’m sure it won’t be too difficult to actually hook up the winch even while the bumper is left on. I was able to lift it into place and get the bolts started on my own, however an extra set of hands will help tremendously. Plenty of time for another beer afterwards. HOWEVER. 1 star for the company of 4wheelparts. I dealt with the Montreal location as I’m a few hours away. Have done so before and will again. This criticism is not towards the Montreal location as I found them helpful, honest and easy to deal with. Due to the company head quarters/warehouse being in the US, the website listed this product as being in stock and ready to ship. I learned that the Montreal location , and I’m sure others were shafted with misinformation that caused many many delays. Online information is not accurate at all. Ordering larger items in the past from Montreal took days to get to me. I waited for over a month and two trips that I really could of used the bumper had to go without. 2020 has PLENTY of other things to complain about and I’m mindful of this. However, this was truly frustrating as I could have ordered elsewhere and received on time. But I wanted to once again support Canadian (at least shop location) during this time.

Great sturdy bumper for the price. Extremely easy to install and im not to mechanically incline.

This bumper looks great. Installation was easy and it fit great too. This is a heavy bumper though at over 100 pounds.

Very happy with bumper, easy to install and love the clearance on my wheels.

Installation was super easy, I had the bumper on in about 15 min after getting the factory one off. The bumper looks great too. I put KC 6" fog lights on it which bolted right up with no problems. I did have to follow the instructions and drill out one of the factory bumper mount holes to get it to line up correctly. I would definatly have no problem ordering this again.

I purchased this bumper 2 years ago for my 2007 JKU and the 9K Smittybilt winch. This bumper is awesome and takes a beating. 2 years later and it still looks almost brand new. I love this bumper so much that when I traded my 2007 JKU in for a 2014 JKU I took that bumper off my 07 and installed it on my 2014. I also customized my by installing 2 1/2" amber LED lights in the 5 holes and wired the to the fog light switch..

Great bumper! Highly recommend this bumper to any Jeep owners, great price, good quality easy to install.

This is my 4th Smittybilt bumper. There is a reason I keep going back for more. The price and quality are hard to beat as well as easy to follow instructions.

It definitely is a 2 person job but is a nice bumper worth the money.

Love it on my 18 Willis. Fits great installation was easy winch plate already there no other additions to make it functional.

Great strong product, easy to install. Just make sure all bolts line up before you push it on.

Decided to change up the look so I went with the XRC gen1 front and rear bumpers. Solid build, nice welds and easy to install. I added the gen3 smittybilt XRC winch which fit perfectly.

Fits great and looks awesome on my 4 door Rubicon. Easy to put on, did it by myself, did have to drill out holes where it bolts to Jeep but not a big deal.
