ATL Winch Bumpers
The innovative ATL winch bumper is designed and developed to replace the original bumper. The bumper
covers the winch, but is not attached to it. Many openings on the bumper ventilate the vehicle and enable
easy access to the winch for maintenance. ATL bumpers are characterized in low weight and in keeping
close proximity to the vehicle's original contour lines. Also, they fit most winch manufacturerʼs bolt
mounting footprints.

Skid Plates
The skid plates are made from 6 mm ( 1⁄4” ) quality heavy-duty aluminum. They are laser cut and shaped
on a computerized bending machine for consistent quality. The skid plates bolt into the original holes in the
vehicle. The mounting brackets are designed to absorb the shocks and vibrations when encountering an
obstacle on the road. The brackets prevent shock or vibration from passing from the skid plate to the
vehicleʼs chassis or to the mechanical assembly. Each skid plate is designed with many openings to
enable servicing the vehicle without dismantling the plates.

Went to the New England Association of 4 WD Clubs Fall Crawl 2 weeks after I bought the LJ for my better half. And we came home with a sweet raffle prize, best 100 bux we spent, special thanks to the folks at ASFIR for helping to support the local club scene.

Then she got a get out of jail free card for xmas:

Met up with some hard core Chevy ZR2 buddies at Rausch Creek:

The little monster even tried a little "wheeling":

The stock bumper, bumper-ettes & fogs weighed 25 lbs.

The Asfir weighs 55 lbs. The center section is 1/4" and re-inforced very well in the winch box area. The outer ends are 1/8". The lower shield is 1/8" as well, but the way it's formed makes it pretty darn stiff.

Since everyone seems to have tube and stubby bumpers, I'm glad to have this style.

There are also holes and welded nuts in the right location so I think most steering skids will bolt right up.
