I was dreaming of a front bumper and doing research before most people bought their KK. I know a lot of things :twisted:

I tried myself to get a TJM, but to no avail. Then I tried to get a local aussie to work on the KK, but then he had a kid and well, things got put on hold.......

I wonder if the ARB bumper would fit a KK? If the TJM one was originally designed for a KJ but fits a KK, perhaps the same holds true for other steel bumpers available on the market?

Historically thus far from what I have seen, any thing made for a KJ sits about an inch to low exposing the bottom if the grill and they don't have previsions for the KK's turn signals...

I did some investigating before deciding to go with the TJM bar (while they were still plentyful), and the ARB KJ bumper's design wouldn't suit the front of a KK. You'll notice the ARB bar is raised at the sides, therefore wouldn't fit the front grille. The TJM Bar was flat, and just fitted so much easier with the natural design of the nose of the car.

The mount for the ARB Bar should fit the chassis of the KK though (even though the bar doesn't suit), cause underneath the big plastic nose the body is pretty much the same as a KJ.... So any keen fabricators could make a front bar to suit the ARB Mounting plate... just a thought :wink:
