Went and put a foot up on a ford front bumper and the darn thing bent down. Upon closer examination it was just body thin metal over some foam and steel backing. My old Chevy C-10 you could pull stumps with the bumper or jack the vehicle out of the mud. Of course the ZJ has the same problem, but at least the bumpers _are_ plastic and not something made to look stronger than it is. -- DougW |
