Next on my agenda, I needed a front bumper. After doing some research, I decided on a mid-width design with a bull bar. I polled the Wayalife forum and was turned on to Crawler Conceptz by MedixJK. I ordered one of their Ultra-Series bumpers and bumper skids. When it arrived I was pleased to see...
