Hi

I must admit I have not contacted ZOR to verify that they have these items for the Sport, but from the looks of their website and construction, it looks like they might be able to help you out.

The skid plate I suspect you are on your own there but that should not be a big problem for a handy person to fabricate.

Hope this helps in some way.

BRDHNTR has a pretty sweet rear bumper he made up.  Do a search on bumpers and youl'll find it.

Noisy, does that work with your rear rack?  Can you show a pic of how they relate  and mount with both the rack up and down?

Nice bumper system. Could you tell me how did you mount it to the frame? Did you weld any re-inforced sleeves for extra strength? How much does it weigh?

I had Runck Bumpers on my CJ and loved them. I am building my own based on their style for my new Sammy.

Tux- those do look sturdy and like they would offer plenty of protection. Show us a pic when you get it done.

Will do... working on the front bumper right now so it will be a few. This Sammy needs quite a bit of lovin but all of the right stuff is there to work with.

I'm kinda scratchin my head on the front bumper. I was going to build it in the traditional Runk style but I have 2 Calamini winch guards. 1 is on the sammy and the other is off of my Vitara. Soooo there will be some deviation from the OEM Runck style I fear..... LOL...

I kinda hate to cut up the Vitara guard cause there are probally some folks who could use it. $125 plus shipping bolts it on a new Vit / Tracker.

The Sammy guard has already had the torch taken to it and is on the truck now. I am going to try and see what I can do with it 1st....
