The Motobilt Hatchet Jeep JK Front Bumper is an ultra-slim design for the front of your Jeep JK. The Hatchet is available in a few different configurations. This Hatchet configuration is the base model. The Hatchet includes 3/4 inch thick steel D-Ring mounts that pass through the bumper and are welded inside and out for superior strength. The Hatchet is a total of 41 inch wide which allows for closer approach angles.  This is a frame chop design bumper.  The front frame horns have to be cut off approximately 2"s and the bottom crash bar has to be completely cut off and removed from the frame.  The areas that need to be cut are shown in the pictures.  Also holes will have to be drilled through the frame rails in order to mount the bumper to the Jeep.
