[67siia]

Acquiring a 1999 4Runner in a few days and looking at options for a heavy duty rear bumper with/without spare tire carrier, any suggestions - I am in Southern California?

Thanks for all your help. Placed my order with Irbis... can't wait to get it

Be sure to post some pics once you get it. Im thinking im going to get one from there too. Did you get the tire carrier with it?

 

[67siia]

No carrier. Sure I'll post pics

aluminum TJM fronts also

Irbis just fixed my rear sway bar last Tuesday.

They have a sweet TJM aluminum front bumper that was never imported here for the 3rd gens.

might as well pick one of those up while you are at it....

 

[67siia]

Already have a ARB, can you post pics of it?

 

[sn0wrunner]

I got excited and thought you had pics up of the rear bumper Cant wait to see what it looks like! Did you get the snorkle on yet?

 

[67siia]

I wish I had the rear...
Working on the snokel tonight will post pics when done

Looks like no one is interested. You could probly talk him down. And since they arent selling them in the US anymore I think they are going to be harder to find. It also says he has a TJM 17 which if Im not mistaking will fit on a runner as well, but he doesnt list a price.

 

[sn0wrunner]

And if I was in the market for a 3rd gen right now I'd go with this...

[sn0wrunner]

he keeps removing the ad... sorry

 

[Ron Helmuth]

nicely equipped for the price

the miles are a little high but otherwise that is a fine ride for the price....

 

[sn0wrunner]

He put it back up again...

Maybe he'll leave it up this time. http://denver.craigslist.org/pts/919195221.html
