Help! Bumper Problem

[BryceOJ]

Hey guys. So my comanche stock bumper, was pulled by something from a Ignorant PO. What do you think I should do? Do you think that I can be straightened and how much would it cost? Or should I go to a yard, that I know has a good bumper for now and they want $200 for it. Is that a good price?

 

Here's a pic. You can kinda see it.

I'd shop around if it were me.

Thank you for the links! I'm picking up a draw tite receiver and I understand it fits well with the stock bumper. The second one eBay is that a decent bumper will it fit with my receiver hitch? There's free shipping which is a plus

I couldn't tell you that. It looks more like a Dodge bumper than a Jeep even though it says it fits.... I'm not a fan of the stock style bumper. The JCRoffroad is something I'm more interested in doing with my MJ....

Both those links are for the same bumper. Be advised it's a bumper ONLY. I t doesn't work with the factory brackets, Westin (Fey) has their own brackets. The bumper is a universal fit, then you buy the brackets that are specific to your truck. I don't know what your hitch is, but I have a class 3 hitch (can't remember the name at the moment) that the Westin/Fey bumper will NOT work with.

I have class 3 hitch. It's a draw tite. Well I'm getting it soon. I know it fits really well with the stock bumper

You don't have it yet. How do you know it fits "really well" (or at all) with the stock bumper?

It's the one that was made for the comanche

Ah. Good find -- the ones that mount to the sides of the frame rails (the right way) are rare. That might work with the Westin/Fey bumper brackets -- they mount to the same three holes. I think the hitch should go on first, then the bumper brackets, because IIRC they have the edges bent out at 90 degrees for stiffess, so I don't think you could mount them first.
