ARB bumper weirdness
Not really sure what happened here but someone is selling a 4runner on ebay with an ARB bumper mounted. Looks like this:



Does anyone know why it looks so out of place? Wrong bumper?

blake that what mine looked like after the body lift install, remember?

still that gap would have to be from a 2" body lift and judging by the rest of the truck's stance that doesn't look to be the case

Definitely no body lift on this 4Runner. Check out the top view of this ARB, what model do you think it was made for?

Maybe one for an 86-95 on a 96?

Looks dang close if it is actually mounted and not booty fabbed on.

For the third gen 4runners, you have to buy either a prado bar, or a taco bar. That is neither.

In fact, that looks like the bar for a 86-95 4runner.

The roller fairlead mount and the low hanging fins are a dead giveaway.

Thanks everyone, I am about to order a new front bumper soon. I am torn between the shrockworks and the ARB prado.

I just didnt want mine to look like that. I was reading on some posts people mention how the rear bumper is designed for a specific lift, i didnt know if the front was the same.

more pics:
