If its for a Cherokee then it most likely is too wide even for the tracker.  I only know because I have a friend I wheel with that has a Wagoneer and its wider then my Tracker.  The Wagoneer is really cloe to the new Cherokees for width.

I have that ZOR bumper - it's bullet-proof. Literally.

He should picture the gusseting on the inside of the bumper - it's INSANE. I'm pretty sure it's the front clip from a tank.

I built my front bumper to fit a winch mount I had started.  Check it out on Build Diaries.  I got a break on the bending, but if you have cardboard pattern, any good metal shop will it bend for you.

I boxed the sides and it isn't gong to give.

Thanks.  I replaced my rear bumper also.
  If you know what you want, the hard part is done.  Making a cardboard MOC (for a solid bumper), or use PVC pipe, cardboard and duct tape (for a tube bumper), and get started.  It might be harder finding a shop to bend tubing than flat steel.

Two problems with doing it yourself.
1.  You know where the mistakes are.
2.  There is always something else to try.

If you use square 2" tube or something, you can cut & weld it up. I'm a little shocked square isn't used more instead of tube. That siad - it's hard to buld a bumper like ZOR's for less than they can get it to you.
