ARB or TJM Quick question?

I know this has been done as far as what people like. Which bumper is the easyest to put on? 3RD Gen. Which requires the most fabrication? I'm looking into replacing my stock bumper and I think the easyer it is, then the wife will go for it. I like the color matched ones I've been seeing! Thanks!

The TJM bumpers are very easy to put on (granted its easier with 2 people). I don't know about the ARB, but I'm sure someone else will chime in

tjm as it doesnt require much cutting. ARB I heard isnt that bad but it wasnt designed for the 4runner anyways, you have a taco and a prado bumper for both trucks.

however the arb deluxe does look good

I believe the tjm might be a bit easier to put on, but the arb isnt all that difficult either. They come with pretty good instructions.
I understand you wanting the easiest fit, but I would suggest you go with the bar that you prefer the looks of and functionality of instead. Remember, you have to look at it for many more hours than what you might save during instalation. I would hate for you to look at something you are not 100% happy with for the sake of saving 1 hour of your life.
Good luck.
