Question to anyone reading: Looking for a place to source a front bumper (I am not a fan of the bull bar, though it’s likely to be original) and an altimeter / tilt meter which seems to be missing from the top of the dashboard. Any tip is appreciated!
Hello,
Welcome to the madness.
Thant bumper looks like it was either sourced from Australia or built to look like an Aussie part.
There are a few part vendors. Maybe one of them has the OEM bumper in stock. Chances are it was discontinued.
Regarding the dash pod (altimeter/inclinometer,) there is a vendor here in 'Mud that sells them. I think his name is @4060Seriesnut, but I am not sure about this.
