Newbie here...

I just picked up an '01 Disco II SE7. It currently has an ARB winch bull bar installed. I'm looking to swap this back to a stock OEM bumper.

-What parts will I need? I know the obvious; bumper cover, fogs. Anything else?
-Any concerns with the airbags?

I'll be looking to sell the ARB, so I may be interested in a partial trade for excellent condition OEM parts.

Thanks for any feedback/suggestions.

I am sure someone will do an even trade with you, they might even do the swap for you :D
so why go back to OEM? just wondering -Andy

My wife will be driving this 90% of the time, so it'll mostly see pavement ( :rolleyes: yea I know) with a yearly trip to Otter Lake, NY for some mild trails. Just have no real use for the ARB and would rather it go to someone that would...

Not sure why the previous owner got the ARB anyway... its never seen off road.

I would leave it on. Adds a little more safety to the truck if she were to get in a fender- bender. I also think it looks better than stock. Just my thoughts if my wife were in it. As stated above someone will want it though.

Let me know...

If you decide to want to do some type of trade give me a yell. I have my stock bumper assembly complete with fog lamps. I can include the side running boards too if you need them.

I'll also offer a trade plus some cash if you can email me a pic of the ARB. The OEM bumper I've got is an SD so no fogs.

where are you located?
if it's close I could just do the swap for both of us.

Hehe... I knew I'd get some interest in my offer (got a teaser pic DiscoJen?? :D )

OK.. first, I'm in Rochester, NY (upstate)... most of you guys are a hefty drive.

I'd want parts + cash. I've priced out OEM parts and the ARB BBar... I'll consider reasonable offers.

I'm mechanically inclined and know my way around under the hood. I plan on doing the work myself unless I know it it's beyond my capacity.

I'll be reading the archives tonight and I'm sure will have more questions...

Thanks all

Man, I know....I have yet to meet a florida chick that didn't want to show her boobs....granted I'm not complaining about it by any means! You should keep the ARB on there by the way.
