Early Christmas for me

My wife called from home yesterday saying its here!


Over the last week something came in with a large W on it and finally this came in yesterday.

Here it is unboxed.


Hope to put it all on over the weekend.
Thanks!

This is the TJM T13. I like the push bar look to it. Would you paint it to match? I like the looks of Bachemans ARB painted to match. Will put it on to see how it looks black first.

In addition to the bar, I bought 55w PIAA 520's. Hope that I can use the factory switch on the column. Went with 55w because the the factory fogs are 55w. Also got a Warn XD9000 that will fit perfectly in there.

My wife won't allow me to do much to her 4runner. I keep working on her.

T13's come in both aluminum (uncoated) and steel (coated) from what I understand.

you may want to get something bigger thant he PIAA's. they'll be TINY up there...

IPF makes a good light and so does HELLA.

by the way, it's BAMACHEM, not bacheman...

Sorry bamachem. I knew it was something like that. Without a post to look at, I guessed. Either way, I really like the looks of your painted to match bumper.

This one is the Steel version. The guy from TJM says with the winch mount, the alum. is almost as heavy and I really didn't feel the alum. one would be as strong.

The bumper was $540 an additional $150 to ship by truck. Thought it was a fair price. It came from TJM online.

The PIAA's are 5" round. They will fill in pretty well. Will post a photo once everything is on. May be tomorrow at the rate I am going.

Here it is going on. With my new baby, it takes much longer than it used to when working on my truck.

Here is my son, Jacob in the photo.
Another with the winch in the mount.
