Cliffhanger Rear Bumper

I purchased this Cliffhanger rear bumper with hitch, rear tire swing arm and a jack mount for my 86 Jeep Wagoneer. Awesome! I also purchased a Dozer I front bumper with hitch and winch options. I'm incredibly happy with these bumpers. I took these to a powder coat shop here in STL that has been open forever and the guy kept raving about how well built these bumpers were. He commented on how they used the best materials and the welds were clean and strong. He said more than once that he sees a lot of junk through his shop and whoever built these knew what they were doing. The front bumper brackets use existing holes and are very intuitive! The strength of the brackets and bumper greatly increase the integrity/safety of a front and rear end collisions over factory. The rear bumpers do not use any existing holes and require measuring, and drilling a lot of holes but is just as solid. Also posting a review on the front bumper. I preferred the look of the Dozer front bumper and Cliffhanger rear bumper and they look great together on my jeep!

Overall, it is a stout bumper with excellent welds. I'd purchase it again. There are a couple issues, however. It arrived unpainted, so take that into account. It also arrived with no packaging, in several pieces. I think that while it is plenty strong, it has styling that is pretty basic for the price, and isn't as "tucked in" as I think it could be- the tire carrier is quite a ways from the body, and despite ordering it for a 1 inch body lift, it still sits lower than it should, and further from the body than it should. I couldn't get the spare tire hinge to sit flush either. Additionally, mine did not come with a latch style release like what is pictured, but a screw in system. Like I said, it is certainly beefy, and I'd order it again, but it isn't perfect. 3.5 stars.
