The AEV Rear Bumper and RX Tire Carrier for the JL Wrangler 2018+ are upgrades essential for anyone serious about off-roading adventure.
The OE Jeep JL Wrangler rear bumper with tire carrier works perfectly fine for a stock vehicle that seldom leaves the road, but they are not really meant to withstand much off-road abuse.
Designed from the ground up, AEV’s JL Rear Bumper withstands all the rigors of off-road use and overland travel.
The JL Rear Bumper maximizes departure angle and offers chassis-mounted, tubular steel corner protection for the rear quarter sheet metal, which is one of the most vulnerable parts on the Wrangler.
The AEV Rear Bumper includes a pair of heavy-duty, chassis-mounted recovery points for easy rigging of ¾” anchor shackles.
Rotomolded corners reduce added weight while adding to the overall aesthetic, and a molded step pad is included for secure footing when accessing your cargo.
The AEV Jeep JL rear bumper is fully compatible with the OE trailer hitch receiver, license plate light, trailer harness plug, and will accept the rear ParkSense back-up sensors (if equipped).
There is also a provision for a single 3” square LED reverse light to be mounted cleanly behind the bumper (mounting kit sold separately) and to add a pair of AEV Splash Guards (sold separately).
To ensure the Bumper fits correctly on all Wranglers, we even designed two unique fender-flare extension kits (sold separately) for Jeeps with either the “high” fender flare option or the standard fender flares.
Customers who have aftermarket fender flares or no fender flares at all can order the Rear Bumper without a flare extension for a narrower width.
With multiple configuration options available, the AEV Rear Bumper will look great on the back of your JL Wrangler regardless of your fender flare style.
