I would like ya'lls thoughts on these mods

In the next couple of weeks I am planning on some changes to the King Ranch.

1. Leveling kit and 33” BFG a/t (don’t ask how much those bad boys are for 20” wheels!)
2. Custom made winch bumper from Kennesaw mountain accessories in Atlanta

I want you guys to check this out and tell me what you think. I am going to have them make mine with a thicker bar and also have black driving lights and turn signals installed in the bumper. My truck is black and I think it will look pretty good with the black Harley lights installed after the bumper.

I also want to have the bottom of the bumper painted gold to match the truck and have the top part black.

tell me what you guys think

If you like it go for it, but it looks like something I would put on my ATV not a truck.

Not bad, but might take away from the King Ranch "class".

Where is Kennesaw Mountain Accessories? I've lived in Acworth for 15+ years but have never heard of them.

To each his own, but my $.02 is that bumper just doesn't loo good at all, bottom half is OK but the tubing for the headlight and grill protection looks terrible....I think it ruins the line of the whole front end, and painting it two different colors would make it just that much more apparent.....There's a LOT nicer choices out there IMO

Well I guess you guys are probably right. I have shown this to several people and their opinions are in line with you guys. If any of you have suggestions as what to put on the front end I would greatly appreciate it.

Kennesaw Mountain Accessories is located in Douglasville. I know right? Go figure.

oh wow yeah i definetly dont like that front bumper, kinda reminds me of an armored truck...

I think one of the nicest front end ad ons ive seen is the westin bull bar, covers 1/3 of the front of the bumper, just looks really classy in chrome. I think overall cattle gaurds and replacement bumpers are less popular on newer vehicles, not just fords.

I frequent a Jeep forum. EVERYONE who has dealt with Kennesaw Mountain states that their products do not ship on time, if ever at all. The people who have received bumpers state the welding looks like a beginner did it. There have been individuals who would gladly pay someone in Georgia to 'visit' the owner of Kennesaw Mountain - if he can be found.

Verify the company very carefully. If you want to read up on misfortunes of dealing with Kennesaw Mountain go to Jeeps Unlimited website and use their search engine.


Oh, the 33" tires and leveling kit are good. But the winch bumper - save your money.
