4x4 / Off-Road TechThis section contains all discussion related to taking the FJ Cruiser in Off-Road situations, 4x4 applications and any armor modifications.
I installed an ARB on my FJ and I'm very pleased with my choice. I have seen the BentUp bumper on AngryAndy's FJ and it is also very nice. You might want to also look at the Demello front bumper as it looks really nice as well.
The ARB is probably the heaviest bumper out there and will drop the front of your FJ about 3/4" (more than 1" if you install a winch). You should take this into consideration if you intend on installing larger tires or plan to install a lift kit.
Your choice will probably come down to what you think will look best on your FJ (and what you can afford). Good luck!
IMHO, it really is up to individual preference. If I was to choose myself, I would lean more towards the ARB, just for aesthetic reasons.

I went with the ARB ......even with the winch the look and drive still seem normal. I think the loook is awsome and the build quality of the ARB is the best I've seen.
