THE Front Bumper ARB StealthBar is the ideal option for Jeep Wrangler JL owners and Gladiator JT seeking protection Front High-end, European-approved, with no compromise on style or lightness. Designed in Australia by ARB4x4, this bumper uses an AHC (Absorbing Hollow Core) structure made of recyclable PE polymer, offering exceptional impact absorption while maintaining the modern aesthetics of the Jeep JL/JT.

Lighter than a traditional steel bumper, the StealthBar improves handling, reduces tire wear, limits fuel consumption, and protects the suspension. Airbag compatible, winch compatible up to 4,536 kg, and adaptable to versions with or without parking sensors, it meets the demands of discerning 4x4 users, whether on the trail or for everyday driving.

Designed to integrate seamlessly with the vehicle's lines, it only alters the front length by 50 mm, while offering an optimized 38° central approach angle, ideal for off-roading. Its UV-stabilized polymer structure guarantees exceptional resistance to corrosion, impacts, and harsh conditions.

Protection Front High performance and European approved

The StealthBar fully complies with the Australian standard AS 4876.1-2002, including section 3.2 Road User Protection, ensuring optimal safety for occupants and other road users. Its design allows for controlled deformation upon impact, minimizing repair costs.

Thanks to its reinforced PE material, it offers real robustness while remaining significantly lighter than steel bumpers: only 25 kg assembled (or 23 kg in the European version). This lightness provides a real advantage in OffRoad, preserving the weight on the front axle and maintaining the vehicle's performance.

Compatibility, installation and added equipment

The ARB StealthBar comes as a complete kit, ready to install without major modifications. It directly replaces the original bumper while retaining the original plastic skid plate (minor trimming may be required). Installation takes approximately 150 minutes and fits perfectly on Jeep Wrangler JL as well as Jeep Gladiator JT, in versions with or without front sensors.

It's compatible with a wide variety of auxiliary lights and LED bars, and includes mounting points for long-range headlights. A CB aerial mount is also included. For vehicles requiring a winch, ARB has integrated full winch compatibility up to 10,000 lbs, with a liftable license plate bracket included.

For Jeeps without a winch, the Top Filler kit is included to close the upper front panel.
