Description
Get the protection and recovery capability of a heavy-duty steel bumper without overwhelming the front of your Jeep. The Rebel Off Road Trailhead Series Mid-Width Front Bumper combines a compact trail-ready profile with integrated winch capability, factory fog light provisions, and a built-in grille guard hoop.
Designed for the 2007–2018 Jeep Wrangler JK/JKU, 2018+ Wrangler JL/JLU, and 2020+ Gladiator JT, the Trailhead's mid-width design opens up clearance around the front tires while providing substantially more protection and functionality than the factory bumper.
A bolt-on fairlead mount, integrated grille guard hoop, factory fog light mounts, heavy-duty steel construction, and textured black powder coat make the Trailhead an excellent foundation for daily-driven, trail, and overland Jeep builds.
Why Choose a Mid-Width Front Bumper?
A mid-width bumper gives you a balance between the coverage of a full-width bumper and the tire clearance of a narrow stubby bumper.
By keeping the outer corners compact, the Trailhead Series provides additional room around oversized tires while maintaining meaningful front-end protection across the center of the Jeep.
The result is an aggressive, functional bumper that works equally well on moderately modified daily drivers and heavily built trail Jeeps.
Winch-Ready Recovery Platform
The Trailhead Series Front Bumper is designed to accommodate a recovery winch, allowing you to add dependable self-recovery capability directly to the front of your Jeep.
A bolt-on fairlead mount is included, providing a clean mounting location for the winch fairlead while maintaining the compact profile of the bumper.
For a complete recovery setup, an optional WARN VR EVO 10-S winch can be selected when ordering.
Integrated Grille Guard Hoop
Unlike bumpers that require a separate hoop or grille guard, the Trailhead Series incorporates a heavy-duty front hoop directly into the bumper design.
The hoop adds protection around the grille and radiator area while giving the Trailhead its distinctive trail-ready appearance.
Because the hoop is already incorporated into the bumper, there is no need to purchase or install a separate grille guard.
Retains Your Factory Fog Lights
The Trailhead Series Front Bumper includes dedicated fog light mounting locations designed to work with factory Jeep halogen and LED fog lights.
Retaining the factory fog lights gives you a clean, integrated appearance without requiring additional auxiliary lighting simply to complete the bumper installation.
Upgrade Your Fog Lights
Want more lighting performance? The Trailhead bumper can also be configured with several popular aftermarket fog light options.
Compatible lighting solutions are available from manufacturers including KC Hilites Flex Era 3, SAE Legal, Baja Designs SAE Legal Fog Light , DV8 LED Fog Lights, and Quake LED, allowing you to configure the bumper around your preferred lighting system.
Available lighting options may include SAE-compliant configurations for customers looking to maintain street-oriented fog light performance.
Built for Oversized Tires
The Trailhead's mid-width profile leaves the outer tire area substantially more open than a traditional full-width bumper.
That additional clearance makes the bumper especially well-suited to Jeeps running larger tires, aftermarket suspension, high-clearance fenders, or other modifications designed to increase articulation and trail capability.
Heavy-Duty Steel Construction
Built for demanding off-road use, the Trailhead Series Front Bumper uses heavy-duty steel construction to protect the front of your Jeep from trail obstacles while providing a solid foundation for your recovery equipment.
Its compact construction keeps unnecessary material away from the bumper corners while concentrating protection and recovery capability where it matters most.
Textured Black Powder Coat
The Trailhead Series Front Bumper is finished in a durable textured black powder coat designed to complement factory Jeep trim and provide additional protection against weather and trail exposure.
The low-gloss textured finish gives the bumper a clean appearance that works with everything from a near-stock Wrangler to a fully built trail or overland Jeep.
