Bumpers are shields made from
plastic, rubber, aluminum or steel that are mounted on the front of a motor
vehicle. This one in particular is made
from steel. When collisions occur at low
rates of speed, the Kentrol 54 Inch front bumper will absorb the shock from the
collision in order to reduce or even prevent damage to your rig. Some bumpers use brackets or other types of
energy absorbers while others use a cushioning material made from foam.
These Jeep bumpers have been
designed to reduce and even prevent there being any physical damage to the
front end of your Jeep in the event of a collision at low speeds. These bumpers are not designed to be
structurally related components that contribute significantly to the
crashworthiness of your Jeep or for the protection of any occupants in the
Jeep. They are not meant to be safety
features that are intended to mitigate or prevent injury to occupants. These front bumpers have been designed to
offer protection to the hood, grille and the cooling system as well as the
front mounted lights.
You may have noticed that the
bumper on a Jeep is a bit higher than one on a regular passenger car. This is to allow for better ground clearance
or steeper approach and departure angles when they are driven over grades that
are steep or when they are off road and need more clearance for large rocks,
tree stumps and other obstacles.
Some states do regulate the
height of the bumper. Check with your
state or local agency that is responsible for the motor vehicle regulations to
see if this applies to you.
The 54 inch front bumper
without holes actually does have holes that have been pre – drilled for the
license plate. In order to mount this
bumper in the rear of your Jeep, you will also need to purchase the CJ mounting
bracket. This bumper has been forged
from stainless steel grade 304.
Why should you buy stainless
steel products that are made by Kentrol?
Simply put – it is the very best!
Not all of the products that are made from stainless steel are
equal. The ones that are made by Kentrol
are made from a virgin metal known as 304 grade, surgical stainless steel. It will not rust and it is easy to maintain. Wax it occasionally and it will remain
pristine for years to come. This bumper
does come with all of the necessary hardware.
You can get this factory style
bumper with or without the holes. This
is considered to be a bolt on direct replacement part. It has been made in the USA and comes with a
comprehensive warranty!
