Mounting an ARB bumper

Hey guys I am thinking of getting an ARB bumper. My truck however has been in an accident at one point and when the front 6 inches of the frame (where the passenger frame rail connect to the lower rad support) were repaired, they cut the frame and welded in a new chunk of tubing. The only catch is, that they did not drill holes and tac bolts on the inside of the frame for the front tow hook. So my truck only has "tow hook" holes on the drivers side. Is this going to make mounting an ARB bumper a terrible pain in the ass?! thanks

PS if someone has any pictures of their ARB bumper install on a early 95 pickup or 4runner equivalent, that would be much appreciated!

Nothing a welder, grinder, drill and some Skittles can't fix.

yes, just see what youre missing, or what you need...a welder, some flat stock, a grinder/cutter a drill, and a tap and die set is pretty much all you need.
