The main bumper mounting brackets will attach directly to the face of the Circle S brackets.
In the video, they use the JCR nut strip, which I won't need because the Circle S brackets fulfill that role (and better).
Mount Zion Offroad is doing the work on my XJ and I trust Mike and his team implicitly. They aren't just a garage, they are a true 4x4 custom shop and do fantastic work. The job they did cleaning up my unibody and installing stem-to-stern frame stiffeners was a masterpiece.
It's in now for front and rear bumpers, a full ARB compressor/locker installation, and regearing to 4.10.
The JCR is designed to mount flush on the valance and all the other factory dimension mounting points. I don't know what thickness Circle S uses for the face plate, but mounting the JCR bracket on top of the Circle S bracket might space all the other mounting points out to far?
