ARB bumper 2014+ release

Does this bumper require any changes to the stock skid plate or create any problems with accessing the oil filter..?
 
Weird. I wonder what changed. I even spoke to a LRO rep on the phone and they confirmed it. Well I see you're in Georgia. I'd reach out to Southeast Overland up in Carolina. I think they deal ARB products and could probably assist.

Note the smaller sized elongated slot on the right side of the photo. That is known as a "t" or "transport" slot. Theyre typically incorporated by manufacturers for the transport of their vehicles by truck and train. They are used by towing and recovery operators for loading and recovery if needed.

Being that the 4runner is body on frame, it will have points for this built in. A point that is built in by the manufacturer would be preferred to a point bolted on. However, a bolted on point can be used for recovery provided you have enough rigging to manipulate the load on the points and make sure you aren't working beyond the limits of your equipment.

I have personally recovered a Ram 2500 crew cab 4x4 loaded with wood in the bed and gear buried up to its body using the chain attachment points on the rear hitch. In this case I was fighting somewhere in the neighborhood of 300% of the vehicle weight due to depth, angle, and load.
