TJM rear bumper

[dclee]

Hi all -

Well, a quick question, has anyone here had any experience with this bumper? Our 100 will not be used for any extreme rock-crawling, and not even any heavy expeditioning. I like the TJM design over others for a few reasons:

1.) No integrated trailer hitch (save weight and departure angle), but can add the OEM one if needed to tow.

2.) Clean design with internal pivot point for wheel carriers (opposite of Kaymar). So no pivot points sticking up if you don't have swing-away carriers mounted.

3.) Can put a 33" or 35" spare in the stock location (this is mainly a mall-Cruiser right now, so convenience is a factor).

4.) If I do go to a swing-away, the latch is much easier to use than Kaymar.

Any thoughts?

TIA,

I was thinking of a new rear bumper too and this is the thread:

I have a TJM but the only reason was to clear the space at the bottom of the truck for a fuel tank. Otherwise AI don't see a reason ther get one. Much cruder the the stock one.

ARB will be bringing out rear bumpers for 100's very soon. May want to wait and see what they have to offer.
