Question on bolts for ARB bumper install

[jsmithjr732]

For those that have installed their bumper, can you help me identify which bolts go where? The bag that ARB ships with the bumper must have 20+ bolts in 4 different sizes. Not to mention the different washers as well. Are all of the bolts used on a 4Runner install? The two big bolts I get, but are all of the other ones used as well?

ARB really needs to improve their install instructions. I like to go step-by-step with installs and lack of clear instructions is frustrating.

Thanks in advance!

So I decided to call it a night and look at the instructions from ARB in the morning. For those that need the PDF:

Let me know if you run into any problems during the install, I just installed mine 2 weeks ago.

Ya i installed mine not too long ago and bought mine used so it didnt come with any bolts/instructions but i just used the PDF i found for which bolts to buy and some install threads on Yotatech/T4R.

There will be 6 pretty short big bolts, those are to connect the bumper to the mounts. For the mounts to the frame, I just re-used my stock tow hook bolts. Mine came with crush cans and a few other bolts I didn't use (for the Taco only).

See if you went with my bumper you wouldn't have these questions...LOL I was going to say the same thing as Brian only about 2/3 of the hardware that comes with them will be used. I am sure you will get it on and will be a great addition to your truck.

Just documented all of the parts for the install--starting now. I'm going to create a write-up out of this.

Edit: install guide in editing right now. Should have it up soon.
