4x4 / Off-Road TechThis section contains all discussion related to taking the FJ Cruiser in Off-Road situations, 4x4 applications and any armor modifications.
Here are some pictures of some bars on the all pro. Found over at ih8mud forum. Looks cool, but still like the Expedition one better.
You're fast! You already beat me to it! I was just about to post the new pics.

Nice to see manufacturers on the forum. Still looking for info such as:
Color
Bull Bars (Saw the posted ones, which will be available, can welding be an option as opposed to the bolt on bars in pics?)
Winch fitment (I read somewhere WARN 9500...any others?)
Weight
Availability
Pricing
Rear Bumper
Great job on the bumper. Still the front runner for me. Keep up the good work.
EDIT: Shackle mounting points, light mounting in bumper either side of winch holes like in this pic

Color: Shipped bare, allowing customers to select their color preference and prevent scratching when shipped. Bull Bars: Benefits to bolt-on design:
- Different styles available which are interchangable (or you may select no hoop or add one at a later date)
- If damaged, easily replacable
- More cost effective, lowering retail price
- Bolt-on hoops provide more surface area for mounting to bumper using 4-3/8 Grade 8 bolts on each flange, adding strength over welding the end of the tube directly to the face of the bumper
- Easy of shipping, bolt-on hoop allows our bumper to be shipped via UPS instead of truck freight, potentially saving customers over $100 in shipping costs
Light mounts: Our hoops have mounting tabs for off-road lights.
Recover points: The factory recovery points are retained. However, we are also developing optional bolt-on recovery points and CB antenna mounts for our FJ Cruiser front bumpers.
Winch fitment: Up to a Warn 9.5 xp (without integrated solenoid) Availability: In production, 4-5 weeks out Pricing: TBD, probably starting in the $700-800 range Rear Bumper: In development

Will you be taking deposits or is this going to be a first come first serve thing?
Bull Bar - Even though I like the look of welds, bolting on seems to have many positives. Really like the idea of adding on later and the replaceablility.
Recovery Points - Aren't the stock recovery points just the transportation hoops for tie down on a trailer during shipping? Would like to be able to put some like the ones I posted in an earlier thread, and was wondering if the steel would be thick enough to use em.
I do have a noob question that someone might answer. In all the pictures of all the bumpers, allpro, bentup, arb, etc.. the shadows kill any real view to show the space under the bumper and in front of the front tire. Angry Andy posted pictures of his rig and what appeared to be to stock fender-well bits sticking out like mouse ears, sorry andy but that looks kinda messed up. On all the other bumper photos (all makes) I can't tell if these mouse ears are there or have they been removed and if so how? Unbolted? Cut? I'd like for someone to use some flash photography and let us see up in there. What is going on here?
Thanks,
JB
