1st Gen ARB on my 2000 SR5?

[wmeredith]

I've Googled and searched this forum and can't find anything on the mounting differences between a 1st gen and a 3rd gen when it comes to bumpers. I've found a nice ARB for $300, but it's on a 1st gen.

I'm OK with light modification, does anyone here know what I'm in for?

No takers, eh? Well, it's a good enough deal that I may go ahead an buy it, then do a write up of what it takes to make it work.

I can always weld it on, right?:guitar2:

Its gonna be narrower than the body, and will especially look weird if you have the sr5 flares. Mounting may be the same, but there are gonna be wheel well clearance and other issues trying to mount a bumper designed for a 66.5" wide vehicle onto a 70.9" wide one.

With the time involved with fabbing it to fit, you'd be better off spending the money on a bumper made for your truck.

Once you got it to fit the frame and level it up, you're still sitting way too narrow. Its not worth it.
