I am sad. I finally got people who wanted to buy my front trailer hitch (two in 24 hours!) and upon further review I just simply cannot afford a bumper right now. The one I was going to get after shipping, all the extra bulk charges, and a bracket kit I didn't know I would need ended up being $420. In addition that does not include the bolts!!! I have to go buy my own freakin bolts! So anyway, I decided I had to turn both of these buyers away in favor of simply keeping the front hitch. I like the stock front bumper look so its not that big of a deal, but it certainly does not get me a better approach angle like the bumper would. None of the cheaper "simple tube bumpers" look right on the newer cherokee. You really have to have a curved piece with sides on it. Otherwise it just looks crappy. So I'm stuck with a hitch....that kinda looks crappy. But whatever, its free for now, and what I NEED is a front recovery point before I go wheelin'
