Tjm-17

I got some front end damage and going with a T-17,
but I'm wondering which one to get.
From what I've read there's one for the prado, 4runner, and tacoma that fit.
I have a 97 with black matte flares and I don't want the ends to stick out.
Is the 4runner not as wide as the prado.
Also I saw that the tacoma one is a direct fit, but which year tacoma fits.
I think I want to go with that one, the price is great.
Thanks

stick with the 4runner bumper, i have limted flares and the flares have about half inch on each side till the bumper is wide enough, if you have the smaller flares it should line right up.

i have the 17 and like blake said, the limited flares stick out 1/2 on each side but barely noticeable. even if your not going to use the winch, put a license plate over it so when you sell it, its that much easier. i don't think they sell it without a winch mount anyhow

heres a pic and you can see it on the drivers side

like an arb bullbar, i tried to find one, but they are unavailable, and trying to get one shipped from aussieland would be killer...

there is someone on here with a 00 model that has a t13 iirc.

If you get the T17 and want hoops later, you can just build some. could even make a stinger like Ric or others have.

go with the T17 for now since this really wasnt a planned mod to begin with.

Holy crap that looks sick! Looks like a T-17 mated with an ARB! Nice!

I also like the other pic posted above with the T-17 and a brush guard welded on. Nice work!

THANKS, thats exactly a picture of what I needed. The 4runner one should fit my flairs just right.

Fireteacher- Where did you get yours from and how much shipped?

Just read about the guy with the T-13. I wish i would have known about that bumper. I would have bought it instead of my T-15!!!

I realize it's not easily attainable (sp?) but i travel constantly. I'm posting from Manila, Philippines right now, so i think i could get my hands on it.
