any reason for going with the tjm? Not that they are a bad bumper but there are some other options avialable that protect the fenders and do not have to have the bolt on side wings

I love it, my buddy has one on his 97 SR5. I have a T15 coming for my 96 T4R Limited and I can't freaking wait!

Nice!!! I like the weight of it too! I'm in process of building one, and I can't get the weight down, I'm looking at around 180lbs!! with brackets/bumper/etc

mountainryder00,

Nice lookin Runner you go there...congrats on the purchase. After the install, did you notice any sag in the front? The reason I ask is because I am thinking of getting the OME 3" Lift Kit from ToyTec and was wondering if I should use the spacers for the front. Please let me know. thanks

terminator,

please post some pics whenever your TJM 15 arrives, thanks.

Yes you should... My HD OME lift with HD Bilstein (a setup known for being STIFF) began to sag soon after the install. You might want to hold off on adding the spacer until after it settles though. You don't want to stress those CVs too much. I'll see if I can find some pictures of my white truck's sag... I did have the 15 which will weigh slightly more, but I didn't have a winch at the time.

so far its been on for a couple of weeks and no sag yet. I do have the spacers in also. I would say get them if you can. My lift has been on almost a year and I have had no problems.
