Nighthawk Front Bumper w- Aluminum Skid for JK, JL, & JT

The Artec Nighthawk front bumper delivers heavy-duty, full-width protection for the Jeep Wrangler JK, JL, and Gladiator JT in a clean, low-profile package. Built in the USA from thick laser-cut steel with a bolt-on aerospace aluminum rock guard, it carries a winch, mounts fog lights, and adds real recovery points without the bulk of a stinger hoop.

Key Features

• Made in the USA from 1/4", 3/16", and 1/8" CNC laser-cut and formed steel
• 1/4" thick formed winch plate with internal gusseting for supreme rigidity
• 1/4" aerospace aluminum rock guard skid that bolts on with no drilling required
• 3/4" thick high-strength alloy steel shackle mounts for recovery
• Accepts LED square-style or OEM LED fog lights
• Contoured from 3D scan data for maximum approach angle and tire clearance

Fitment & Compatibility

Fits the Jeep Wrangler JK (2007-2018), Wrangler JL/JLU (2018-present), and Gladiator JT (2020-present). The 1/4" winch plate accepts most winches, and the bumper is cut for LED square or OEM LED fog lights (plastic-bumper JK trims use LED lights or JK-style aftermarket only). Want added grille and light-bar protection? Step up to the Nighthawk Stinger Front Bumper. Complete the armor with the JL Nighthawk Rear Bumper.
