I've searched ad nauseum and all I'm finding are 2 year old threads. Anyone know if the 100 series TJM T3 is available (as in in stock or a couple of weeks out) at any vendor in the US?
(19 Feb Update - I talked to Ben at Slee and apparently I was confusing the bumper referenced in this thread with the T-13 Outback, which is what I ordered.)
Just ordered one today from Ben at Slee, along with Sliders.
If serious, you might want to move on it now. He says they are expecting a price increase of 5-7% shortly. I was going to wait, but the price increase and combined shipping savings with the sliders pushed me over the edge.
My LX470 required structure mods for the ARB combo which I had on my 80, so went with this after talking it over with Ben. No mods needed, other than trimming tabs of the top bar. (Truck still under warranty, so still sensitive to major mods.)
I have the T13, Great bumper and I think comes with fogs.
You might want to cut off the wleded bump mounts so that you can slide the bumper just an inch or so closer.
Once you pull the plastic OEM bumper off you will see the welded bumper mounts, I am mentioning.
Nakman cut his off he has a 98. I have an 01 and did not cut mine but I used a bunch of washers to kind of angle it back toward the body.
There is a thread in here somewhere on it. Also, the T13 is lighter than the ARB, still stout enough but a bit lighter gage steel which I think is a good thing.. Weight is always a consideration.
