Smittyblit atlas front bumper

[Ferarubicon]

Hi jeepers.....

smittyblit atlas front bumper on their JK.

Are they ADR approved bumper???
How is the built quality...
Can you help me with this

I don't know if these bumpers have been tested to pass ADRs specifically but the fact that there are no sharp protrusions and the top hoop doesn't project forward means they would pass in that respect. Again, this doesn't mean it passes ADRs but it won't attract attention and would pass rego inspection. I've had worse on my TJ and never had issues (insurane on the other hand might have been tricky).

These are sold by DBOR, Jeep Konection and SBR so my advice would be to give one of them a ring and ask them what they know about it.

Just wanted to double check...

Arb, Uneek, AEV

So what Jeepkonnection you told is true. The bumper hasn't been tested to pass ADRs but it meets the criteria to pass if it was tested.

ARB and Uneek are ADR approved. I don't know about the AEV one, someone else might be able to answer that question.

I have the ARB bar on mine and I'm quite happy with it. Having said that, I do love the look of the Uneek bar and would be buying that one if I ever replace the bar again.

Thanks mate

AEV one is in the same boat as atlas. It meets ADR standard and won't have much issue passing it. There's a mopar version of the exact bar as well.

Just be aware of the weight.....the Atlas bar is quite heavy.
I'd check the weight and compare it to the Uneek which is, I think, the lightest of them all....for a full width bar. The Uneek has very high wing clearance as well.

Doing a quick check.....
