liberty2.8 · **Posted:** Sat Jul 11, 2009 8:15 am

Anybody have opinions on the difference between the ARB bumper designed to fit the '03 Libby and an '06? I found a deal on and '03 but have an '06. What's it gonna take to make it work?
Thanks

For one, the fogs are differnt sizes and in different locations. i am sure there are mounting issues as well. the whole front ends are different.

I would buy it for thed 200$, turn around and make a small profit. Then put that money towards a ARB for the right year.

KJ 119, thanks for the offer. Best I can tell is that fogs are larger in the earlier model years and turn signals are different (ARB bumpers use the OEM lights from vehicle). Also, mounting locations must be different for 2001-2004 as opposed to 2005-2007. Wouldn't mind trying it out but don't want it to look rigged

You would also have to trim the front grill, because the 2001-2004 are not straight across the bottom. The bumper ends were higher than the center section. You may also end up with a fairly large gap between the bottom edges of the fenders and the bumper.
