During my many visits to Venezuela, I see quite a bit of stuff from Ironman4x4. It's one of the standards down there along with ARB. I realize we don't have any distributors, but I also don't have any problems going down there to pick up stuff, it's a good excuse for a visit with some great friends. Anybody running the Ironman front bumper? I like the look of it and the integrated lights and it appears to be pretty stout. What about their suspension products? Anybody here got their hands on any? What do you think? All comments and suggestions welcomed.
Anybody with Ironman4x4 experiences?

I run their front coils. From what I can tell they are nearly identical to OME 851's. If you type in ironman on the search you should get multiple posts. I bought them on ebay to try them out because they were half the price of OME 851's. They have been a great bang for the buck. Don't know about the bumper.

I run there 2" lift on my 80 and have been happy for the price I could not beat it.

Where did you buy it? The Ironman web page shows that the US doesn't have any distributors.
I'm more interested in the front bumper they have, anybody have it?
I have ironman in my hilux.There coils are value for money but the leave springs are a very hard ride.The bull bars are made by the same factory that makes ARB.The powder coat is not smooth and the fog lights are poor qulity ( rust after 6 munths) but i think value for money.
Pics of the bumper?
I have their leafs and shocks on my 45. They are pretty damn stiff.

I got it off ebay there was a guy that had them for awhile but he sold out and can't get any more.
I got it for around $450 with shocks, steering stabilizer and castor correction bushings. (i also bought it when live.com had 35% off so I got another $100+ off)
I would buy it again due to I am not a big OME fan. I have had shock issues on both of my trucks that had OME on them.
I would like to see the bumpers also.

I thought that they had a stainless version. From what I can tell from their catalog is that they have a black bumper that doesn't have built in lights and a stainless version that does. I'll just have to pay better attention next time I'm in Venezuela. And if I like it, I'll bring one back with me.
My son has them on his Patrol. The PO put them on and had a bit of trouble getting it to sit right. one of the back ones has sagged again. Not really a good ride.

I believe that those Ironman bumpers are the same as TJM bumpers .. maybe same factory, but to me looks same ..

I had a TJM on my last 80 and liked it. It was a lot stronger than stock (doesn't take much), light and winch ready. I set it on a few rocks and it held up. From what I've seen the Ironman is different than the TJM. The next time I'm down in Venezuela, I'll take some pics and get some feedback from the Funrace4x4 guys that run them.
