Sentinel Front Bumper for Jeep Wrangler JK, JL & Gladiator JT - Bare Steel

The Artec Industries Sentinel Front Bumper swaps the vulnerable factory bumper on the Jeep Wrangler JK (2007-2018), Wrangler JL (2018+), and Gladiator JT (2020+) for a high-clearance 3/16" steel unit that tucks in tight against the frame. Pulling the steel up and back opens your approach angle, so the nose stops catching on ledges the stock bumper would plow into. Reinforced recovery points and front-and-center light mounts are built in, and a recessed winch mount option with a fairlead opening lets you run a winch without pushing the bumper away from the frame. This is the bare-steel version, priced for builders who want to finish it their own way.

Features

• 3/16" steel plate construction, CNC-cut for consistent fit
• High-clearance profile hugs the frame for a better approach angle
• Reinforced recovery points rated for strap and winch-line recoveries
• Integrated cube-light mounts keep auxiliary lighting front and center
• Recessed winch mount option with fairlead opening (winch plate sold separately)
• Bolts to the factory frame horns with no drilling
• Bare steel, ready for your choice of paint or powder coat

Verify your model year falls in the JK, JL, or JT range and plan on painting or powder coating the bare steel before it sees weather. To run a winch, add the JL-JT Steel Bumper Winch Plate; if you would rather skip finishing work, the Sentinel in black powder coat ships ready to bolt on, and the Sentinel with hoop adds grille protection.
