Looking for a second hand bull bar and wondered if any other models will fit?

You talking about those "bull bars" that are made from coke cans and bend when you hit a dragonfly? Or a ARB?

I'll settle for either atm. But yeah an arb would nice. I googled it and used the search function and couldn't find any info. Would a bar off a jk or tj or something similar fit?

Not without quite a bit of work. Some people I think have modded TJ bumpers to fit a KJ.

Why use a TJ bumper when there are Stubby and full width bumpers available for the KJ/KK

Sitting out there in the back of someone's mind is the brainstorm for the perfect be-all-end-all of kj bumpers. Both lightweight and strong, air bag and deer compatible, perhaps maybe a composite bumper? Who knows.

I saw a thread a little while ago where somebody compound linked all the kj bumper builds into one post. Maybe Tom can dig that up for us? I saw some really sexy stuff in it.
