2nd Gen Suzuki Vitara High Clearance Front Bumper Kit

This is a high clearance DIY weld-together winch bumper kit for the 1999-2005 Suzuki Vitara and Suzuki Grand Vitara. It features a bolt-on design, protected winch mount, and one of the best approach angles of any bumper on the market. This bumper allows you to forget about approach angle and substantially improves the offroad capability of your Suzuki Vitara. It offers excellent protection from rocks, trees and animal strikes and has been kept to a weight of 74lbs (steel version) through careful design work.

The profile of this bumper has been designed with maximum ground clearance and approach angles put first. The bumper sits as high and tight to the front of the Suzuki Vitara as possible, while the angled lower faces will smoothly slide over obstacles and ensure you do not get hung up on the trail. The side wings of this bumper wrap around to the front wheel wells and tie directly into the main frame mounting plates for true offroad protection. These side wings will take a serious hit without flexing or deflecting into the vehicle body. We know that many Suzuki Vitara owners want to run oversized tires along with long arm suspension kits that extend the wheelbase of the vehicle. This moves the front tires further forwards and often creates interference issues with the stock front bumper. We have thought ahead and specifically designed these bumper side wings to clear 33" tires with a long arm suspension kit.

We finished this bumper off with integrated light buckets for surface mount LED pod lights (custom light cut outs available by request), an integrated winch mount to accept all standard 8-12k lb winches with removable solenoids, and heavy duty 9/16" recovery points that are placed directly in line with the Suzuki Vitara frame to eliminate any leveraging effects. These recovery points are formed by laser cut steel plates that pass through the bumper shell and bolt directly to the Suzuki Vitara frame as part of the bumper's main mounting brackets. The recovery points then get welded to the in and outside of the bumper shell. These factors all combine to form recovery points that minimize stress on your Vitara's frame and are essentially indestructible! What could make this bumper even better? The low profile design has resulted in very reasonable weights of 74lbs for the steel bumper and 36lbs for the aluminum version. Considering that this bumper replaces your factory bumper cover and steel inner-bumper bar, the resulting weight increase to your Vitara is minimal. This minimizes added stress on your vehicle, maintains precious payload capacity, and allows you to keep your factory suspension if desired.

• DIY Weld-together kit - This bumper arrives as precision CNC-laser cut pieces that you then weld together (detailed assembly instructions included)

• Low profile design is engineered to provide maximum ground clearance and complement the factory body lines - this bumper protrudes less than 2" from the center of the grill!

• Heavy duty 3/16" plate steel construction for maximum offroad strength and durability

• Optional 1/4" 5052 aluminum for a lightweight yet very durable overlanding setup (38lb weight savings)

• Bolts directly to frame using 4 heavy duty 1/2" mounting points

• Protected winch mount fits all 8000-10,000lb winches with removable solenoids (Also fits some 12,000lb models)

• Reinforced 9/16" thick clevis mounts allow the use of 3/4" D-Rings and pull directly off of the frame for confident recoveries of heavily loaded vehicles

• Two Integrated LED pod mounts – slotted mounting tabs give tons of adjustment to fit just about any 3x3 surface mount pod light

• Integrated license plate mount

• Optional heavy duty grill and headlight tubing for added protection
