    What was the original rear bumper set up for a 64 CJ-5.

    I just took my rear winch off and weighing my options for what to put in its place.

    Original would have been a drawbar (the angled piece with holes for attachments) attached to the rear crossmember. Kinda neat looking, but hangs down a bit more than preferable for 'wheeling.

    Not even bumperettes? I thought those were at least an option.

    The chrome bumpers (ala Tux) were available as an option on the intermediates. They're out there if you look long and hard.
