Post subject:  Front Bumper Replacement
Now I am pretty sure this has been done to death but,
I was reading through the QLD transport rules and it only states Bullbars,
now I'm not really interested in a big bar for the front but more of a bumper
with better approach angle. Maybe a nudge bar in front as well and recovery
hooks. So I was thinking ?,
Blah Blah Blah guessh i go on with some rubbish

You really have to watch it, as anything you put on the front has top be airbag compliant., Otherwise your insurance is null and void.

I thought that was the case, but wasn't sure.

Anyone know how to get ADR approval?
I presume it would have to be engineered, but what about
testing and would it involve smashing a car?

I don't think it would involve a crash test (if it did, would TJM bother?) but it would certainly require some intense engineering to get accepted. You'd be better off buying one that already complies - I'm sure it would cost you significantly more than $1500 to get one approved.

sorry to bring this up again but,
does anyone know if the TJM bar like Pipeliner's will fit my
2003 KJ if I work something out with the indicators.
I just want something light with better approach angle, better
protection than that plastic rubbish and some where to mount
2 recovery point's.
any help would be appreciated

I thought they were 05 onward only.. no harm calling TJM today to ask.

You can mount two recovery recovery points to the unibody under the front of the KJ, I think it's the same place as you mount the nudge bar. Not 100% but I think Rosco (GMUD) has some.

I Talked the local TJM dealer yesterday and he wasn't sure, but the nucge bar is the same for both .
I thought it might look sweet with an All J's style indicator mount
I will have to ring brisbane today
thanks CD

Rang Geebung and came up with a dead end.
They said I would need to measure all the mounting hole's and
see if they line up. If they don't then it is a no go because any mod
or spacer's mean no compliance. Who would have thought this could
be so hard.
So can I please measure your's Pipeliner on the Sunday that I will catch up
with you all at Deepwater?

I will be at your disposal for any measurements you require - but I warn you, I'm very ticklish.

There is definitely a significant difference between the 2001-2004 KJ's and the 2005-2008 models as far as fitting a front bar goes. I know ECB do a bar for both (they look hideous!) and I think ARB have a bar for the early model, but I'm pretty sure that TJM only fit the later ones.
