Curiosity saved the Jet Cat! Bumper eating away A/C pipe
After reading some threads of fellow FJC owners with after market front bumpers rubbing on the A/C pipe that's in the front of the radiator< I dicided to check mine this morning.
Sure enough it was eating away the tube. Went to pepboy's and got me some fuel line and covered it.
recomendation: check it out!

Yeap, mine had start to get closer to my ARB bracket. So, i actually relocated that little mount that hold it in place right above the typical bumper contact point and i put some fuel line around it. It now has about 1.5 inches of clearance

This exact scenario happened to me four days after buying the rig last year.
Since the dealer installed the ARB bumper and he was 350 miles away, my local dealer made the repair and sent the bill to the selling dealer.
Only a minor inconvenience overall but now I'm thinking I will check it again to be sure things have not shifted.

Thanks guys, I anticipated alittle movement and covered the line with come split loom (2week old install). I just checked it and the split loom is already cut. Maybe its time relocate the line more and knotch the bumper alittle too!
