Anybody have additional pics of the older T13 installed?

Nice! The black on white is what my rig would look like (w/o all the other mods anways )

Keep in mine the silver bumper in the pictures would come black (although you could paint it). The below is the 2011 T13 Ouback ("New Bumper") but it shows the white/black combo.

What the heck is mounted on the hood? Or maybe DS (US) of the bumper.

Maybe Taylor O knows about this hood mounted item?

I should know this, but don't. What is the T slot for?

It's supposed to be a hard point for recovery. Don't know if you're supposed to slip a shackle in there or what.

Or I suppose it's for TJM!

I thought maybe it was for Vol fans!

It's supposedly sized and reinforced to accept a hi-lift jack.

That makes since. I knew it was something like that.

I would NOT pull on that "T". It's funny though - looks like you could drop a chain in there and it'd "drop and lock". But man... so many ways to fail with that. HighLift slot.

I don't see anything on the hood. Are you talking about that fat antenna mounted to the aerial tabs?

Ya that. Couldn't really tell what it was landed on. What kind of antenna is that? Looks like a missile launcher.

I always wondered that myself. Seen alot of them in pictures and videos on australian rigs.

They are antennas. Not sure what frequency range the are specifically for, I think they come in more than one range. I first saw them on military vehicles, but have seen them on Aussie rigs on occasion too. Also saw them on Secret Service vehicles for the presidential convoy on CNN one time too.......so who knows what kind of fancy stuff they are capable of

Hey Dennis any updates on your bumper? Still thinking January some time? that's the story out here at least, but no promises.. I'm still holding my breath.


edit: and that T looks like it'd make a good bottle opener.
