"Mamba" Modular DIY Jeep Cherokee XJ Bumper Kit (1984-2001) – High Clearance, Heavy Duty Protection, and Customizable Design
Mamba is based on the custom bumper we originally developed for our XJ, known as "Green Mamba."
Transform your Jeep Cherokee XJ with the ultimate modular bumper kit designed for off-road enthusiasts who want both performance and customization. This DIY bumper kit offers unparalleled strength, versatility, and a rugged look, all while providing the protection and clearance you need for your off-road adventures.
Key Features:
- DIY Kit for Custom Build: This kit is a weld it yourself bumper with features and options to fit every build. DIY means we can keep the cost down while you can still have an ultra-PREMIUM way to protect your front end from damage.
- Unibody Tie Ins Included: We're not just going to let you bolt this bumper to the factory bumper mounts and call it good enough. We INCLUDE the unibody tie ins that run back and wrap around the bottom of your frame, for strength and longevity.
- Modular Design for Full Customization: Begin with the stubby main bumper section for a compact, aggressive look or extend it with the optional outer wings to create full-width coverage. Whether you need something more maneuverable or full protection, this modular design adapts to your needs.
- Ultra-High Clearance & Excellent Approach Angle: Designed to tackle the toughest trails, the ultra-high clearance and superior approach angle ensure that your Jeep can clear or glide over obstacles without getting hung up. Whether you're rock crawling or exploring off-the-beaten-path terrain, this bumper will keep you moving forward.
- Winch Compatibility: This bumper is winch-ready, fitting a winch inside* to aid in recovery situations. You can choose between a flush mount hawse fairlead for a sleek, low-profile look or a traditional hawse fairlead for a classic appearance. Both options provide smooth winch operation. The fairlead mount is standard in size so other manufacturers’ fairleads will fit without issue.
- Heavy-Duty 1" Thick D-Ring Shackle Recovery Points: The stubby bumper includes 1" thick D-ring shackle recovery points, ensuring you have strong and reliable anchor points for recovery in the most demanding situations. Built to handle the toughest pulls, these recovery points are ready for action when you need them most.
- Built to Last: Laser cut and CNC formed components ensure an easy fit for the DIY’er. Crafted with durable, heavy-duty materials, this bumper offers outstanding protection for your Jeep’s front end, while its angular design adds to the rugged, off-road aesthetic. The bumper has significant tie ins to the uniframe, acting as both a stiffener and a steering gearbox brace. It’s engineered to withstand the harshest conditions and provide long-lasting durability.
- Customization Options: Whether you prefer the compact, aggressive stubby look or need additional coverage with the optional outer wings, this bumper kit allows you to configure it to your exact preferences. The choice is yours to create the perfect bumper for your needs.
