Bump it up: Jeep front bumpers and winch mounts

Jeep is a vehicle where almost nothing you can’t upgrade or customize if you wish so. There are plenty of after-market options for every part and accessories to choose from, you can literally be spoiled with such a vast range. The market is flooded with upgraded options for all Jeep models, but no model comes close to the Wrangler when it comes to upgradability and customization. No matter which part, if you’re thinking of changing with an upgraded version of that, chances are it is available in the market already. Jeep owners are known to be the most creative, and if you want to be a bit adventurous, you won’t be disappointed for sure. Regardless you are looking for something with improved functionality or just want to increase the aesthetic quotient of your Jeep, you’re in for a treat.

When it comes to upgrading Jeep, probably the first thing that comes in one’s mind is the Jeep Wrangler bumper and winch combination. A winch with improved functionality could be your best friend in various tricky situations like climbing the rock or cruising through a muddy plain. It can save the day when you need it most, provided you know what you’re doing and which things you should look for when getting one. In this article, I’ll guide you through the entire process of choosing a great winch-bumper combination. Without further ado, let’s start then.

Off-road capability

Wrangler is the beast of vehicles which can glide you through in any tricky situation no matter how rough the terrain is. However, it needs better protection if you want it to maintain its visual appeal even after years of beating, and what better thing can one do than installing an upgraded combo of wrench and bumper to keep his Wrangler in its optimal condition. A combo kit which includes all the necessary parts and accessories will be the smart choice no matter if you want it to do a DIY way or having them fitted by your trusted mechanic.

Reliable protection

Look for the bumpers which are made of quality steel of a minimum 3/16 plate or more for better protection on the front-end. There are many types of finishes, but to prevent damaging due to rust and corrosion, you should choose the power-coated finish which is designed for that purpose. And Polyutherine resin for overall protection reliability will save your day by preventing any oil, chemical or abrasions even in the nastiest off-roading situation.

Safe recovery

Motor and gearbox are the crucial factors when you’re selecting the winch, and choosing the right spec depending on your specific needs is the key here. The winch comes with a vast range of capability, it starts from 3000 lb and goes up to 17,500 lb, again, you must choose one based on your requirement. Because there’s no point buying a winch with 17,500 lb of capacity if you’re never going to use that much. The gearbox must be durable enough with further improved gear-ratio for the ultimate pulling power in the trickiest condition, so don’t forget to check that too. The winch comes with both options, a cable or a rope, for recovery in a stuck situation – cable is superior to the rope in terms of the durability of course, but you have to compromise with its added weight. Choose sturdy rope instead of cable if the weight of your vehicle in an issue, that will do just with almost similar reliability.
