Just bought an arb bumper that's in new condition from some friends at a toyota salvage yard for $200. Just figured I would brag lol.

 

ahhh u suck, nice find tho! get some pics!!!!!useless thread without pics

 

Yeah ima need some help putting it on its kinda heavy lol. I'm a locksmith and I always hook those guys up with keys and stuff for cheap so they were just returning the favor.

 

awesome score. is it just the bumper bumper, or is it the bumper with the winch mount provisions?




bumper

 

It has the winch mounts. And it came with a heavy duty skid plate also.

 

I can't even find a complete truck in a junk yard around here, much less a truck with usable parts left on it... and you stumble across a freek'n ARB bumper on one?

lucky SOB...


but it's okay, I'll order my AOR bumper here very shortly and I wont feel so bad for myself



good deal man, where's the pix?

 

lies i tell you we need proof

 

Haha ok ill see if I can take a pic with my camera. Its in the bed of my truck for now...its a good thing none of you live near me haha.

 

Ok I got a couple pics but can someone do me a favor and post them on here? My phone won't let me upload attachements. Pm me and I can text them to ya.

 

i just PM'd you i gotta see this for myself

 

I found an ARB on Craigslist locally a few months back for $200 in fantastic shape. I set up a time and place to meet the guy, and never heard from him again.

Nice score!

 

Man, i was just looking for pickup pics w arb's. AND we have the same truck! I NEED THESE PICS!!!

 

damn i wish the junk yards were closer to me

 

That's why I hate craigslist. Even when you setup a time and place, they're not always there. I went to buy a brush guard and some other parts from some guy. Drove all the way there in about 30 to 40 minutes and haven't heard anything since. Waste of my time.

 

Dang this thing looks brand new!!!

 

i fkin hate you.......like for real....lmao

 

Sweet score, man I looked forever before dropping the coin on a new one.

The installation of these things can be a bit difficult. For your year pickup, it is easier than my '89 4Runner. (1st gen 4Runner body style).

ARB's instructions are crap, total crap. I have a thread on here for when I installed mine. The big difference is "wing brackets" that are used on your bumper, but not on mine. There should be two tall, thin blades on the inside of the bumper, left and right of the center box section. For your year you will use those blades to bolt the bumper on. For my year they are useless and interfere with the body mounts.

I put a Warn M8000 in mine. You have to mount the winch into the bumper before putting the bumper on the rig. That makes for a very heavy bumper to install. Two people for sure, three is better.

Congrats!!

 

I want one haha im kinda scared though... Im gonna have to cut the brackets on mine and raise them 2"

 

yea,like YOTERR said..........u suck!
JK!

Ive been looking at new ones and just cant spend the coin right now.

 

I actually might go with a warn front bumper...
