Which is better, ARB front bumper or Rovertym front bumper? I'm deciding on which one to get.

i'm sorry for getting your hopes up, but decided to stay with my TJM. i was thinking of buying the RTE Slim Line, but like the headlight and driving light protection that the TJM has to offer and because i don't like the style of the RTE Std bumper. if my driving was in open spaces (rock crawling)i would get the RTE in a heartbeat.

Danno - Where did you get your TJM? Is it the same as an ARB? Looks like it has a better approach angle than the ARB. I like the headlight protection as well, and the only other option is $G.

i got it from a club member that bought a D90 a few months after he bought the TJM for his disco. i think he got it from someplace in georgia. from what i recall, Hella was at one time importing them.

TJM is no longer sold in the US, dunno why. I think Hella was their US distributor, you might try calling them.

You can buy TJM via 4x4 Connection. They just recently began carrying them.....

TJM is made in Australia. I know you guys have a ARB factory over there but do they manufacture bullbars there or import. ARB are a much bigger company over here in AUS then TJM. Dont get me wrong TJM are big but ARB is chosen by the more hardcore 4x4ers. See our bull bars are big cause there designed for animal strikes. As alot of accidents in the bush are caused from kangaroos, cows etc. From what i see and read here you guys seem to really like rocks. Rocks arnt popular here so you can see why it dosnt have a approch angel like the $g. In my oppinion the arb looks better then the TJM.
How much does the arb cost over there its like a $1000 here alittle more for airbag.
