Poison Spyder 1716021DBP1 BFH II Brawler Front Bumper with Brawler Bar & Shackle Tabs for 07-18 Jeep Wrangler JK

Alright.
Packaging - Superior. All hardware included. The Vac pump mount kit is included.
Welds - Solid. Flawless. Next to zero spatter on the inside tube. Detail is great.
Coating - excellent. No mars or missing areas. Actually spent some time looking for defects because craftsmanship usually suffers in high volume mfr. I stand corrected with Poison Spyder.
Instruction - Online and included. Color pics online are the same as the sheet. Super easy. Straight forward.
Install: I found it easier to remove the crash bar first. Short cut the frame gussets with a disc and pop them off with a crow bar. Grind it all flat. Prime and paint. I would suggest dropping the away bar, assembling the vac pump and bracket, the cut your gussets and frame, prime, paint, then mount the pump and sway bar. It didn't make sense to me to spray spark and debris all over the harness and pump parts.
After fitting and drilling, I realized I should have greased the frame for the final assault. Would have been easy to slide it on. Anyway a few bumps to square it up, drill, and bolt it on was easy. No grinding, or removal of any internal diameter needed to fit. Priceless. Torqued to spec.
Instant gratification. Now for the back, and the rockers! More pictures later. Missing the cut and grind. It got dark and finishing became more important than documenting something the mfr shows in the instructions. The instructions cover this part very well.

Looks great and the fitment is perfect. Cutting the frame was a lot more difficult than youtube videos show and took the most time. I ended up using fire and rescue sawsall blade and things moved a lot better.

I love this bumper. It looks great and is rock solid!

Installation was a bit tricky. Even after grinding the frame rails smooth, sliding the last 1 1/2" into place was just impossible. Upon checking where it was hanging up I noticed inside the bumper there are pockets that guide it into place. At the end are flat grommets welded inside at the bottom bolt hole. Since I couldn't fit my angle grinder in there I used a Dremel with a conical grinder tip to reduce the height of the grommet. If you need go this route don't over do it. Take a little off at a time and test fit. This grommet is designed to created a very snug fit. I got it to where I could slide it within 3/4" then used a rubber mallet to drive it home. Before I went to town with the mallet, so as to protect the powder coat, I covered the impact area with masking tape and a bath towel. Overall with the frame cuts and tweaks it took me 2 hours and 20 min for the install.

Very pleased!
