Aluminum Winch Bumper Install Guide (8274 Warn Winch Install & Quick Speed Test)

In this video, Tyler and Wes walk through the major steps in installing our Aluminum 8274 Specific bumper, as well as the 8274 Warn winch that it's designed for. Stay tuned through the end if you want to see how the 8274 stacks up in a speed comparison with a conventional winch on Tyler's Hemi YJ!
This bumper is an evolution of our original steel Adventure Series bumper. We started by changing out nearly every component for a slightly thicker, however lighter weight aluminum component. This particular 8274 variant of the bumper, is designed for one of the fastest pulling, heaviest duty winches available that will bolt onto your JL/JT Chassis: The Warn 8274. This is about the baddest winch you can fit onto the front of your Jeep and is definitely a favorite among the recovery experts we have talked with.

"Do you like my little wrench?" lmao

[@jaredharden6903]

I just ordered one last night for my JT diesel! Can’t wait!

[@NextVentureMotorsports]

Just getting caught up on replies here after EJS and saw this. Thank you for the order; appreciate the business Jared!

Can this bumper be run without the lower skid? Also whats the max tire size it clears?

[@NextVentureMotorsports]

Thanks for asking! It can be run without the lower skid; however that will leave the sway bar disconnect motor on Rubicon models exposed unless you're deleting it or don't have it. This was designed for 40s; but we've seen 42" treps clear it as well with 68" wide axles.

At about 5:17 you said the factory lights off the steel bumper wouldn't work. but then you proceed to say you are using your stock lights. So does it work with stock lights or not? I have factory LEDs with the plastic bumper right now on my rubicon but I ordered a set of Nacho lights with the steel mounts because I was going to upgrade the the jeep steel bumper. But rather than buy the steel bumper I was thinking of buying this aluminum one from you, but now I'm worried the nacho lights wont work. Will it work with KC g4 4" or the natch quatro? I don't really care for the piss colored amber light from baja design.

Many of the factory fogs in the steel bumper package have a different bolt pattern vs the more common 4 bolt pattern shown here that is used in all plastic bumpers and some steel bumpers from what we have seen. Your plastic bumper fogs should bolt right in, and it looks like Nacho makes an adapter bracket for the same bolt pattern we use right here: www.nachooffroadtechnology.com/products/v3jw1
