Your friendly ARB Techs here (Seattle, WA). Instead of taking the time to go put these in storage, we decided it would be better to offer them to our fellow Expedition members. We have:

3415110 - Landcruiser 200 Series bar - $1100 + Shipping
Still wrapped, but was shipped back face down. All we can see is a scratched corner of the upright.

3421210 - 06-08 4Runner bar - $600 +Shipping
Scratched tube and scuffed front facing. Great candidate for a color match paint job.

Photos can be seen at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/34191633@N04/

Both will come with complete fit kits.

We do have other bars we will be moving and will be putting them up for sale on here if this works out. We are not taking orders, and would rather not have everyone asking and pleading for us to drop kick the bar they want. Be patient and keep checking back as we unload them case by case.

Great value Matt. We really appreciate you posting up to ExPo first!

Can't speak highly enough about how solid the customer service at ARB is (everyone knows the products are top notch). I've have multiple personal examples of how they have gone above and beyond.

This is the 200 series right? Isn't that location where the rubber bumper bolts on anyways?

It is very close. It on the upright about the buffers. Right at the angular bend.

Wish the 4Runner hardware worked on Tacomas ... I much prefer the recessed fog/indicator on the 4Runner bar to the cheezy rectangular reflector on the Tacoma's. I know it's only an aesthetic thing; means something to me though. (I've heard there's a kit to do the inset fogs, but haven't heard if it works on the Tacoma bar -- i.e., if it's effected by mounting points or anything).

I'm going to let my dad know about the 200 series one. He could use one :)

This is the one that accepts a winch? Does it include the upper "hoops" like the one in the pic?

Thanks

My first ARB bullbar was a 'scratch and dent'. After a minor accident, my insurance bought me a shiney new one!! After onlt two wheelin' trips it was scratched again.

Happy Customer am I.

Geez, I have to sand and apply rustoleum to both bumpers after many jeep trips anyway, someone ought to jump on this deal.

Even though I have a nice Shrockworks bumper on the front, I'm tempted by the ARB's great price.

I'm encouraging a friend with a 2004 to consider it but don't know how poorly /differently it will fit the earlier body style.

I told that "Friend" about it yesterday and he didn't seem interested at all. Maybe some of your Voodoo will work on him.

He really wants the Shrockworks bumper and today we were looking at the difference in our headlights, hood, and grille and they look too different for a nice fit.

I like to have ‘spares’ but really don’t need a spare Bull Bar sitting on the floor or my shop ☺

Above and beyond would be ANYBODY making a specific bumper for a Dodge Power Wagon.

Redline

Why does it have to be for a Power Wagon instead of just the correct one for your Dodge body style?

Wouldn't a REUNEL front bumper work?

Kind of an uncalled for dig and way off topic for this for sale post, but you may want to contact Fab Fours (http://www.fabfours.com). I'm pretty sure they make a really nice front bumper for a Power Wagon.

Ok guys and gals, we need to move these puppies. Tell your friends, tell your enemies, tell your in-laws! Heck- give someone a birthday present, a late Christmas present, or a really early Christmas present!

The 4Runner bar is specifically engineered for the '06-'09 models. The previous years of that generation do not have the same fender lines, grill, or top deck location. We would not suggest anyone with other that a '06-'09 model purchase this.

a.k.a. No returning the bar we sell you at half price...

I have some good and bad news. Bad news- We have sold the 4Runner bar. Good news- We will post a few more bars as soon as someone decides they want a slightly scratched/dented 200-Series Bar!

If it helps, I have a buddy eager to see a 2003 4Runner bumper in your scratch & dent listing....

3415110 - Landcruiser 200 Series bar - $1100 + Shipping
Still wrapped, but was shipped back face down. All we can see is a scratched corner of the upright.

Someone posted this over at IH8MUD, so I thought I would join here and respond.

I would take the 200-series bar...but it is the 3415110 model.

According to:
http://arbusa.com/uploads/PDF/accessorizeYourRig/toyotaLandCruiser200.pdf

the 3415110 model is "not compatible with headlight washer system where fitted" while the 3415120 "is designed to work with factory headlight washer system".

I guess I'm wondering why ARB makes a model that is not compatible (unless other countries don't have washers).

Can the 110 easily be modified into a 120? Basically my question is: what's the difference?

ARBTECH
01-14-2009, 05:45 PM
Head light washers are not common worldwide. Yes, most of the US models do have them. Soo, to get this bar to work you have a few options...

Mount it a little lower so the squirters clear the top plate.

Mount it correctly, and don't care that you are without little actuating squirter thingys because you have a bad-MMM looking Landcruiser...

Haha! Yeah...I figured that would be the answer. Even though I never use the squirters, I paid for them already and would rather not cover them up.

Is this just a cutout on the 120 for them? Could you not just cut the 110 the same way?

ARBTECH
01-14-2009, 07:36 PM
The top plate has a recessed stamping on the 120. Modifying (cutting) the 110 is probably do-able, just dont expect a perfect fit.
