This is probably the reverse of what most of you are looking to do, but i thought id ask since you are likely to have insight into the installation of the ARB bumper. I believe it's a combination bumper. I want to put the LX back to factory condition. Any insight you may have into what I would need or if it's possible to go to factory would be great.

A few questions i have:

1) Is any hardware removed or cut off from the vehicle in order to install the ARB?

2) If so, what is removed.

if you can think of anything i haven't, please feel free to let me know.


hope my picture works.

cheers,

Jason

The bottom part of the frame horn the hangs low is cut..... but I don't think it'll materially affect reinstalling the OEM .......A bit less secure but minimally so....
 
I'd be happy to get some photos of the frame where the brackets are bolted on. It's dark and there are tornados on the prowl in north Texas right now, it may be tomorrow.
 
I live in north Dallas area. I may be interested in swapping needed parts for the change over. Not sue what the value of this bumper is used.
 
on the ARB the bottom bracket at the end of the frame rails are trimmed so the ARB mounts can slide over .... do you have a replacement bumper ? I think you'll find one mount bolt will not have a home but it shouldn't be crucial.

The only thing I have is the original bumper skin, which is heavily scratched from years of being in an attic. I think I'm missing the foam insert and the cross bar support. What does the bottom part of the OEM bumper attach to? Does the lower attach to the cross bar?
