I have a 2024 Wrangler Willys. I no longer want the plastic bumper and would prefer to install a steel bumper like the one on the Rubicon. First, based on fitment, this should be no problem. Second, does the electrical harness just plug and play or is it different? Finally, it sounds like I need to order a steel skid plate, is that correct? Do I also need to order new plastic connectors like the little plugs I pulled out of the plastic bumper?
Upgrading your 2024 Wrangler Willys to the Mopar Front Bumper Kit is a popular swap. Here are the answers to your upgrade questions:
Fitment: Direct bolt-on installation with no frame modifications needed for your 2024 JL.
Electrical Harness: The factory fog light harness plugs right in; the factory connectors match up seamlessly with the lights on the steel Rubicon bumper.
Skid Plate: You must order the matching steel skid plate because the plastic bumper skid plate does not line up or mount correctly to the steel bumper.
Part Number: 68293897AB (Qty: 1) — Mopar Production Steel Front Bumper Skid Plate
Push Pins / Plugs: It is recommended to have extra push-pin fasteners on hand since the originals holding your factory air dam or trim pieces frequently break upon removal.
Part Number: 6503598 or standard Mopar body trim push rivets (Qty: As needed, typically 6–10 depending on how many original retainers get damaged during disassembly)

Does this include the lower steel plate?
No, the standard Mopar 3 Piece Rubicon Steel Front Bumper kit does not include the skid plate or winch mounting plate. They are sold seperately.

I have a 2025 Gladiator Rubicon. Will my LED lights fit in the fog light housings on this or will I need an adapter?
Yes, your factory LED fog lights from your 2025 Gladiator Rubicon will bolt directly into the fog light housings on the Mopar Front Bumper Kit for Jeep without needing any adapters.

I want to replace my 2024 Gladiator Rubicon plastic bumper with this steel bumper. Are there any modifications I need to make to the bumper mounting hardware or is it all included with this kit? Also will the existing LED fog lights fit with this bumper?
The good news is that the steel bumper is designed as a direct bolt-on replacement for your Jeep.
The kit is intended to reuse the original mounting hardware (bolts and nuts) from your existing plastic bumper.
No permanent modifications to your Gladiator's frame are required. However, if you plan to install a winch later, you will need a separate winch mounting plate, as the bumper itself does not include the internal tray.
While the bumper bolts up, your factory plastic air dam/skid plate may not align perfectly with the new steel bumper. Many owners choose to add the matching Mopar Steel Front Skid Plate for full protection and a seamless look.
This is the most critical part of the swap: Your existing LED fog lights from the plastic bumper will not fit the steel bumper.
Mounting Brackets: The LED fog lights used in Mopar plastic bumpers use a different mounting tab configuration than those used in the steel bumpers.
Wiring Harness: The internal wiring harness inside the plastic bumper is also different. To avoid cutting your factory wires, most owners purchase a new fog light wiring harness specifically for the steel bumper.
Solution: You will likely need to purchase Mopar Steel Bumper LED Fog Lamps or use an aftermarket bracket kit designed to adapt plastic-bumper lights to steel-bumper housings.

I am looking to replace the plastic front bumper on my 2020 Gladiator , it has halogen lights currently. The this new Mopar three piece steel bumper has LED lights. Will the electrical connection match up and will the LED lights work or will I need additional connections and will I need to have a dealership adjust the computer to recognize the new Led lights .
Switching from the factory plastic bumper with halogen fog lights to the Mopar 3-Piece Steel Bumper with factory LED fog lights involves a couple of important wiring and computer considerations:
Plug and Play Connection: The main chassis wiring harness plug on your Gladiator will physically plug into the new bumper's internal wiring harness, but the factory plug styles for the individual fog lamps differ between halogen and LED setups. You will typically need a fog light adapter/conversion wiring harness (or a steel bumper fog lamp jumper harness) to bridge the connection from your factory vehicle harness to the LED fog lights.
Computer / Dealer Flash Required: Because your truck originally came with halogen lights, your vehicle's Body Control Module (BCM) is programmed to look for halogen power draws. If you plug in factory LEDs without updating the computer, the lower electrical draw of the LEDs can cause them to flicker, throw error codes, or fail to function properly. You will need to have a dealership (or someone with a Tazer JL / appropriate programming tool) update your vehicle's sales code configuration in the computer to recognize the factory LED fog lights.

Will this bumper fit a 2014 JK?
No, the Mopar 3-Piece Rubicon Steel Front Bumper is not a direct bolt-on fit for a 2014 Jeep Wrangler JK. This bumper is specifically engineered for the mounting points and frame geometry of the 2018–2025 Wrangler JL and 2020–2025 Gladiator JT. To make it work on your 2014 JK, you would need to address several compatibility issues (modifications to the bumper and frame).

Is the Mopar 3 piece front bumper rated for flat towing a Jeep Gladiator?
No, it is not.

Hi, does this work on MY25 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon with front parking sensors?
This bumper does NOT have pre-drilled holes or provisions for front parking sensors. But, otherwise, this would be the correct fitment for your Jeep.
To get the steel bumper with sensor functionality on your 2025 Rubicon, you generally have two paths:
1. The "European Spec" Bumper (Part # 68293724AD)
In some international markets, the steel bumper is sold with pre-drilled holes. While difficult to find from US-based Mopar parts sites, searching for Part # 68293724AD (the center section only) or looking for a "European Spec" steel bumper can sometimes yield a factory-drilled version.
2. Modification with a Sensor Bezel Kit
Most owners purchase the standard Mopar Rubicon Steel Front Bumper and drill the four required holes. To do this cleanly, you use a sensor bezel kit to house the sensors in the new steel face.
Recommended Bezel Kit: The DV8 Offroad Mopar Sensor Bezel Set is specifically designed to allow factory Mopar sensors to be mounted into aftermarket or steel bumpers that lack factory holes.
