Chassis Unlimited Bumpers

[Krawfish]

Looking at getting some new bumpers for my 06' Power Wagon. This is their Octane series and it's really growing on me, not really a fan of the huge bumpers. I can't find any reviews out there as I believe they are quite new. What do you guys think about it?

Thank you for your service. I was looking at your profile picture and seen th ch53. I used to ride those all the time. ****** from a helluva lot of em too. My favorite was the ch47. Nothing like that huge thump thump thump. I sure miss it. I was Force Recon

Good looking bumper and reads to be well made.
All bumpers are too expensive but Im still gonna put one on my '16 wagon. Haven't found one Im willing pay their price for yet.
I dig the Octane and the price might be cheaper if you don't need the winch tray. Those are often a $300 to $400 add on. I'm pretty sure we don't need it since our winch has its own mount and will stay put if you take your bumper off.
I might be mistaken on an '06 but it'd be worth a look and a call, and if they drop a couple hundred or more of their price I'd jump all over that bad boy.
They may even have the same bumper listed without the winch ready bracket for a cheaper price.
I always like to acquire the weight spec, Im not lookin to hang 300lbs out front. Clearance and light mounting with a touch of style, max weight 150lbs is my goal. Obviously must retain access to my winch, and I could go either way on existing recovery hooks or new shackles.

Thank you for your service as well. She's a big old beast but she gets the job done. Definitely tests your mechanical skills haha.


As for the DV8 bumper, that's a really good price. Looks like they include the light pods and d-ring shackles as well. I found some pictures from another member on the forum who purchased one and noticed it stuck out the front quite a bit. I prefer the slimmer profile on this octane but I may look more into it for that price. Matching front and rear is important to me as well and I'm not sure if DV8 had a rear for my year.

I'll have to call about the winch tray. I know they have a specific PW line for the '10+ years so I'm not sure how those differ.

Dang, that's a nice looking bumper! I like it!
Looks a lot better on the 05+ trucks, unfortunately for me.
