Ill put a vote in for rigidco. I run a front and ill be purchasing a tire carrier for my wifes rig. He is just one guy so keep that in mind. Ive talked to him on the phone quite a few times. Super nice guy and he puts out really great bumpers.
+1 for ridgidco. Great company and a the owner is a stand up guy. I have no clue as to whether or not they are still in business. I noticed the website hasn't changed since 2003 when I bought my front bumper from them.
Terry is still producing. I have a front that I bought 8 years ago, a rear bumper I bought 2 years ago, and I got the tire carrier upgrade installed about 6 months ago. He makes some badass stuff. Can take a while to get ahold of him. Best is to call.
I have to vote for Terry at Rigidco, He does great work his welds are flawless. He is also a great person to deal with He is a 1 man show so there is a month to 2 month wait some times . I am fortunate enough to live a few miles from him so I got to pick up my stuff and personally meet him .
I am running a Rigidco FWB2K winch bumper and his Sliders on my XJ soon as funds allow I plan on getting a Tirecarrier
Rigidco is still in business. I was talking to Terry last week. I have the rigidco FBG front bumper installed, a rigidco wm2 winch mount in the mail and RBM rear bumper being built right now, they build some very well thought out and very solid stuff. The front bumper mounting system is pure beef and everything fit like a glove, no grinding no hammers, I did not even ask about the rear mounting system, I'm sure it will also be a well thought out and strong like bull. Rigidco ftw
He has some great stuff. I wonder if he will sell just the cut pieces and mail them out. This way there is a DIY option that may cut down on the time it takes to get the products out. I don't mind welding my own stuff. In fact i prefer the challenge.
Be that as it may... I love my Rigidco rear w/ tire carrier. Hands down on of my favorite pieces on my XJ, and I have a LOT. I was able to beat the wait time when a member on here listed one for sale a few years ago.
