Looks like it will fit.
Also, the sway bar will hang down a couple inches or so from the bumper bottom.

Or we could send a well written letter to Evo to make just a few more aluminum 1/4 pounders. Just a few more.

I think its similar to the quarter pounder as to how the sway motor rotates backwards.

I would think so. The quarter pounder doesn’t allow it to be rotated back though, right? Doesn’t it interfere. Or can you notch out to make it work?

Thanks guys. I’ll try and see. Once clocked back, is it pretty protected or is the motor still somewhat exposed? Obviously you guys don’t worry about hitting it. GenRight is only recommending that bumper for non-Rubicon models (without the Rubicon disconnect motor) but I just can’t imagine hitting the motor would be that likely.

Finally got around to installing my GenRight bumper. I was able to rotate the sway bar motor with a little modification to the winch tray. I test fitted the winch and there is no interference with the motor. Just wanted to show this in case anyone else wants to attempt the same. I’ll post some more pics with it installed. Just waiting for replacement bolts for the winch.

I like the fix and creativity!
Personally, with the removal of all the materail near the corner, I'd reinforce that area with some steel, but if you don't have access to a welder, that becomes problematic.
Thanks for the update on the fitment. I just recently sold my Rubi bar for a stock one so that I can build a super high clearance winch bumper on mine. :rock:

Actually, most of the material in the corner is a cutout from GenRight for the motor isolator. That piece stays the same, regardless of rotating the motor so the cutout is there regardless. Not that reinforcement wouldn’t still be helpful but I’m assuming there are enough of those bumpers/winch trays out there that it’s good to go.

I missing something.

The Genright bumper I had prior had a cut out for motor but you did not need to clock it. It also covered the front crash bar and if I remember correctly you did have to relocate the vacuum pump. I think on the ultra high clearance you need to clock the sway motor like the Evo QP.

This is for GenRight’s Ultra Clearance bumper that does not have the built in skid that attaches to the crash bar. Crash bar needs to be removed. However, the tray they use is the same for most of their stubby bumpers that sink the winch between the frame.
Seahawkfan is correct...GenRight recommends the Ultra Clearance for non-Rubicon models because of the sway bar motor. However, just like many use bumpers like EVO’s quarter pounder on Rubicons and just clock the motor, I wanted to see if it would work.
Eddie, I think you mentioned that the Warn winch plate you had on JetLi wouldn’t allow for clocking the sway bar motor (i think there is even a video, IIR). I wonder if one could get it to work with a little trimming similar to what i did on the GenRight tray.
