!#$!@ed Wrong ARB Absorber.

[T4RArmorLT]

So I am sitting here trying to install the 95-04 ARB bumper on my 99 Limited T4R. The problem is my my impact asorbers sent by ARB are not the ones I have seen in everyone's pics. I need to know if it will be okay if I cut out this part of the box infront of the frame rail mounts to make it fit?

The problem is I need to get the bumper on there bc I was stupid and didn't really look at the absorber compared to others before I took off the front end plate. So I need a quick fix till I can call and chew someone out.

ARB changed up the mounting brackets not too long ago so If you're looking in comparison to them they wont be the same. Other than that, I can't help you cus I don't know what the new one looks like.

I would take it then that the one in the picture is a new impact absorber they switched to.

there was a posting on this a couple weeks back. One of the guys responded with a link to a Yotatech thread that described the fix.

a yt member had this problem a few weeks ago. And yes, arb did change the mounts for the taco bumper recently (after several years of production with the old mounts). I have no idea why. Here's the yt thread..
