TJM bumper for LX470's

[Jim_Chow]

by different clips, does it mean that this bumper can't be made to fit the later MY's?

does anyone else make a simple small bumper like this for the later MY's if this cannot be made to fit?

I don't even know if ARB has anything that will fit a '06+ LX. When I bought my sahara bar one year ago, there were two models, one for '98-02, one for '03-05. By the front clip being different, I believe it's the part of the body below the headlight/front grille trim. I noticed on Hoser's pics that his doesn't stick out nearly as far as mine. His doesn't protrude as far as the headlight trim while I think mine goes beyond the trim.

WOW, great price too. A lot less than the ARB I have been wanting.
?-1 What colors does that come in, BLACK? or do you need to have them painted?
?-2 Are those the stock fog lamps in that bumper that fit?
?-3 What does the winch Frame include or shall I say look like. Is it in this photo?

Thanks

i was referring to the tjm t17. any way to get that thing on my 07 without a bunch of welding and/or totally sacrificing my air bag usefulness.

Christo, I like the looks of the 17 and I did hit a deer at 70mph a few weeks ago, however, if you'll excuse what may be stupid questions:
1) The 17 is inexpensive and is referred to as a bumper channel. Does that mean it fits over rather than replaces the existing bumper? My wings are damaged and I intended to replace the whole thing.
2) I know the 17 is not airbag certified but am not sure whether that should be a serious concern. Would that suggest that the bags will inflate with less or more impact than stock, or can you even hazzard a guess?
Many thanks!

I should be a replacement bumper. It isn't as substantial as the other offerings and has no grill guard element.

It would be irresponsible for them to "hazzard" a guess. Use at your own risk, I say!

Thanks for your input. I'm not looking for any legally enforecable representation re: airbag operation (LOL), I just would like to know whether the "trigger" is likely to be lighter or heavier.....
Thanks again..............
