so most people are familiar with the infamous ARB bumpers, and those all to awesome foreign hilux trucks with the fender side rails, but I havnt seen them on a 1st gen runner before. I know I know, "damage multipliers!", but I like them anyways. I have just ordered an ARB bumper/winch for my junk and im working with a local fabricator to make a set of fender rails that will tie in from my ARB to my Marlin rock sliders. anyone here done it? or seen it? ive pulled an image from ARB for your amusement. Im picking up my bumper tomorrow and hope to start on the rails this week.

 

NICE! Can't wait to see yours.
"damage multipliers" apply to those fake bull-bars with flimsy mounting. I think the side-rails that are securely mounted to the bumper and the rock sliders are really functional. Would like to have the ARB bumper, too, but got other functional priorities.

 

they’d probably be functional if tied in, but i’m not a fan of the appearance (of the fender sliders).
