TJM T13 Bumper questions

[Rat Patrol]

1) Does this bumper come with mounting points for most winches or do you need to buy a winch cradle from TJM that is designed for their bumper?

2) How difficult to install winch at later date? Better to install with bumper off truck first?

3) What are your impressions for the fog light bulbs that come with this bumper?

3) Does it have antenna mount(s)?

Any winch that mounts feet down and has a remote solenoid will work

I did installed my super winch afterwards and it wasn't that hard. Mind you I also had to make a mount to put the solenoid remotely. Figure a full day

Lights are fine

It has light mounts but nothing specific for a cb antenna


I'm happy with mine if that means anything

Are there any mounting tabs on the very top section where a antenna could mount?

ARB has 2 tabs on the top. One on left side ( for right hand drive rigs) and one one right side (for left hand drive rigs).

Attached is generic picture of ARB bar with antenna mounts......

Great Bumper.

Comes with the mount for your Winch.

Fogs are fine and all the needed wires, buttons included.

Antenna mounts are at the two top points on the cross bars, you'll have to drill if you want bumper mount antenna.

Check my smugmug for more shots, also Nakman did a thread. Slee has photos of our bumpers. Good resource for these bumpers also.

Thanks for the info!

Love the T13 so far. Several guys commented on it at 100's I the Hills. It has two tabs up top very similar to the ARB pic you have posted. I have a 12k Titan mounted in mine without issue, about the size of an M8000 IIRC. I like the way the center supports are angled to match the angle of the headlight/grille abutment. I also have an Expedition Lighting Systems 32" Atlas lightbar that Nick shoehorned in there nicely.

The bumper Seems plenty stout so far. This is about the only pic I can get to of it on my iPad at the moment:

So that was YOUR truck at ACC! I was drooling while it was there haha

Love mine as well. Great shape look, very stout and functional.....


Also the way the winch mount portion stays attached and the front can be removed is very nice when installing the winch.

Lol thanks! The guys at ACC did a great job with it too with such a tight timeframe. The engine has barely had time to cool off since I picked it up.
