I know this has been asked before. I swear I remember seeing it a few months back actually. I've spent the last 2 hours searching on here, Jeepkj(which is down now for me) and even google trying to find the answer with zero luck.

I'm just curious to know exactly how hard or what it would entail to fit a 2001-2004 ARB Bumper on to a 2006? There is one for sale down in the sale thread and now I'm curious to know would it be possible to make it fit my 2006 or would it just involve way to much work and be costly to make it fit? I assume there must be a pretty huge different considering how much more the 2005-2007 version costs compared to the 2001-2004 version. I'm hoping to get lucky though and the only difference is asthetics.

If anyone could point me in the direction of a thread that says how to make it fit so I can see that would be great since I couldn't find anything. If it's basically just some minor trimming involved then I might go with it but I if it's going to be way more detailed and harder work then I'll move on.

Mind you I have seen this post

I don't like how low that sits but I heard it was only becasue the person didn't want to trim the flares otherwise it'd have fit higher up just fine, Is that true?

Your last statement is true.....but its a lot more than just the fenders, but yes with some cutting it will all work and look o.k...... (but not for my kj) they both bolt up the same

They bolt up the same BUT there are differences due to the grill etc
I wouldn't do it since it looks hacked up to me
