Just scored an ARB 3423020 (95-04 Tacoma) bumper off craigslist for a steal of $600 and it's brand new. I know I'll have to cut the ends of the frame off for my 2002 4runner. Not looking foward to that. Having NEVER used a winch before, how do I know if it's compatible with this bar? I mean is there a standard mounting size or something?

On Amazon the Smittybuilt XRC 9500 was a "frequently bought" pair
ARB lists Warn XD9000.

Ideas?

Should have a 10x4.5" bolt pattern....which is what most all winches (save comp or ATV size winches) use. It's fairly universal for 5-12K or larger winches.
 
It is very very easy to remove the frame rail ends with a cutoff wheel in an angle grinder. Probably less than 5 minutes for both sides. Just cut through the weld.

Oh so there's no measurements to be taken off? I'm just taking off the very edge so it can slide in? I have the instructions that came with it, but it's kinda confusing
 
The instructions that come with it are for a Tacoma. No measuring required, just cut the front plates off as close to the back of them as you can. You can google around and find instructions for installing on a 4Runner, but it's mostly obvious.
