box was too big and was more than twice the size of the bumper so i left the box lol
got home and had to do some xmas shopping so the bumper install will have to wait. i did mange to reclock the winch and should work lol without actually looking at the bumper

thanks. happy holidays to you too!!! i hate being out around this time of the year. too many last minute shoppers and impatient drivers. trying to stay off the roads as much as i can


so the arb instructions sucks. not one ARB bumper install write up for a IFS 4runner. only thing i got done was unloaded it. installed the winch (will have to come out later) figured out how to install the control box. modify my roller fairlead but its not gonna work. will have to buy the warn one that fits the bumper from what i heard, the roller fairlead i need runs from 100-250$ wtf. http://www.amazon.com/Warn-5742-WARN...pr_product_top
i contacted arb usa to see if they can give me the exact roller fairlead i need. looks like this one but i wanna make sure before i order. i cant install the bumper till the get that installed so i only install the bumper once.

got some more self recover gear. since i mostly wheel alone, i always worry about getting stuck some where so i kinda went overboard... lol
they are green and not gray like i see in alot of pictures lol. was expecting them to be more hard rubber than just plastic. will see how they hold up
