The Brawler™ FULL Width Rear Bumper for JK provides the highest ground and tire clearance possible in a full width JK rear bumper. This bumper brings Poison Spyder form and function to the overlander market, and to those who would like to keep their stock JK fender flares. The bumper extends to the full width of the stock flares, to integrate with them cleanly while protecting them from trail hazards. This configuration includes high clearance recovery shackle tabs and a receiver hitch. Like all bumpers in the Brawler product line, the FULL Width rear bumper is fabricated from 3/16" plate steel, CNC laser-cut and precision brake-formed into a low profile, high clearance design. This product ships as bare steel—it will need to be painted or powder coated prior to final installation.

Product Description
FULL Width
Finally there is a Full Width front bumper that incorporates Poison Spyder's attention to form and function, in an elegant package that integrates perfectly with the stock Jeep or aftermarket stock replacement fender flares. While this bumper was designed for those Jeep enthusiasts who prefer a more "overland" style and function to their Jeep build, or want to keep their factory flares, we couldn't simply make a full-width monstrosity like so many unsightly bumpers already on the market. Even though it's full width, and less likely to be used on the hard core rock trails, we still felt compelled to design it with maximum approach angle, ground clearance and tire clearance possible while still extending out to the full width of the stock flares to protect the corners of the Jeep. The outriggers that extend to the edge of the flare are kept as tight to the original Brawler's high clearance lines as possible, tapering outward toward the ends. This allows the best departure angles possible in a full width rear bumper, minimizing the chances of hanging up as the rear tire comes off a rock or ledge. The outriggers are designed to integrate visually with the stock fender flares, in a clean, almost "factory" look.
Bumper Plate Steel Construction
Every Brawler bumper starts out as a sheet of 3/16" plate steel. Our CNC laser cutter precisely cuts the flat pattern as designed in our 3D CAD system. Next the bumper parts are CNC brake-formed into the high clearance, multi-faceted pieces that will become a finished bumper. Highly skilled tradesmen weld each bumper together using precision-engineered assembly fixtures for a perfect fit. Finally the complete bumper is sent through our finishing department for final appearance surfacing and quality control checks.
Integrated Hitch Receiver
The integrated hitch receiver accepts standard 2" hitches and recovery accessories. It is built in to the structure of the Brawler FULL Width Rear Bumper in order to provide a higher clearance, tougher hitch that's there when you need it, but tucked up higher out of the way for better clearance and departure angles on the trail. Includes integrated safety chain loops. IMPORTANT: The integrated hitch receiver is not rated for towing. It is intended as a recovery attachment point only.
Rock Solid Mounting
The JK Brawler FULL Width Rear Bumper incorporates an extra set of mounting bolts, along the bottom of the bumper which fasten into the rear crossmember. Combined with the mounting flange bolts at either side, the bumper is rigidly fastened by a total of 8 Grade 8 bolts, on three different planes to provide ultimate strength and rigidity to the mounted bumper. The drivers side "floating" flange allows for safe, secure tightening to the Jeep's frame rails regardless of manufacturing variances from the Jeep factory.
Recovery Shackle Tabs
The Heavy Duty Recovery Shackle Tabs are CNC machined from 1" thick steel billet, specifically designed to accept our Heavy Duty 3/4" Recovery Shackles. These tabs are designed to match the high clearance aspects of the rest of the bumper and minimized hang-ups. These Heavy Duty Recovery Shackle Tabs come as standard equipment on the Brawler FULL Width Rear Bumper.
Important Information
RockBrawler™ and Brawler™ Rear Bumpers, when used with the stock spare tire mount, can accommodate up to a 33" spare tire. To mount a larger than 33" spare tire above these bumpers, an aftermarket spare tire mounting system which raises the position of the tire must be used.

Features & Benefits
At Poison Spyder we strive to build superior features into every aspect of each product we make. Every feature has a reason for being included in the design. Here are a list of the most important of these features, along with an explanation of the benefits of each. Consider these important factors when shopping for products, and compare the competition to Poison Spyder's features and benefits!
Feature
|
Benefit
|
"Full" Width
|
Provides corner protection all the way to the edges of the fender flare. Visually integrates with the stock fender flares.
|
3/16" Plate Steel Construction
|
Lighter than bumpers constructed of 1/4" plate, but faceted design and internal gussets yield superior strength.
|
CNC Laser Cut & Brake Formed
|
Precision fit with consistent quality from unit to unit. Cleaner edges than plasma or flame-cut components.
|
Laser Cut Lightening Holes
|
Wherever possible without compromising strength, we've laser cut material out of the bumper to lighten it up. The result is that the Brawler FULL Width Rear Bumper is the same weight as our narrower RockBrawler II Rear Bumper.
|
Multi-Faceted Design
|
The best possible ground clearance and approach angles available without cutting Jeep's frame. Multiple bends also provide greater structural strength than flat, un-bent plate.
|
High Clearance Recovery Shackle Tabs
|
Angled for improved obstacle clearance and approach angle. Designed to conform to the angles of the bumper to reduce hang-ups when approaching steep obstacles. CNC machined from 1" plate steel for ultimate strength.
|
Grade 8 Mounting Bolts on Multiple Planes
|
Easy bolt-on installation with Grade-8 fasteners on several plans (along the frame rail sides and below the crossmember) for superior mounting strenth.

Frequently Asked Questions
Got a question about this product? We've tried to cover the most frequently asked ones below. You may also want to check our
Master FAQ Page for more general questions about Poison Spyder, our products, ordering and shipping. Don't see an answer to your question? Ask our sales department by email at [email protected], and we'll get back to you as soon as possible with the information you need.
Q: Can I buy the bumper now and add the tire carrier later?
A: Unfortunately we can not sell the tire carrier separately for retrofitting to existing rear bumpers. Welding in the tire carrier spindle is a highly precise operation, which can only be done properly with our specially designed assembly fixtures. For those who have already purchased a Poison Spyder bumper without a tire carrier, you may be interested in adding our JK Body Mounted Tire Carrier, which mounts independent of the bumper.
Q: Can I order it powder coated?
A: At this time we are not offering powder coat for this product. If we are able to devise suitable packaging which will adequately protect the powder coat finish during transit, we may add a powder coat option in the future.
