What piece of architecture prevents mounting an ARB on a Limited?

I see that most of the well-respected bumper manufacturers don't offer a front bumper/winch bumper for the Limited models. What part of the vehicle architecture prevents an ARB or Ironman bumper from being fitted to a Limited? Is it simply because the body/bumper lines won't match up, as the bumper is made for an SR5? Or is the frame different on a Limited? Does anyone make any kind of a winch bumper for a Limited model?

Thanks

The limited bumper is totally different from the sr5/trd models. It has less ground clearance and has a flat shape targeting luxury/street type use. The sections that usually get cut out for winch bumpers on the sport models does not exist on the limited bumper. Frame is the same underneath the bumper skin.

I get that the bumper is different, but don't you cut most of that off when installing something like an ARB or Ironman bumper?

I think with the ARB full bumper yes 3/4 of the bottom is cut off. But I believe the lines at those cutting points are also different. I know the trd pro garnish doesn't fit the limited either because that bar is smaller. With all the hybrid bumpers the lines are way too different on the limited so you cannot cleanly make the cuts needed. Only the center valence section gets cut out with the hybrid bumpers and the limited does not have that at all. to make it fit, the limited bumper would look like you took a chainsaw to it and just cut the entire middle section out and it would not blend well.
