ETA: Pretty sure the bar was a T13 from the pics here, it had the sensors in it too.[b]Rob[/b]

I got TJM equipment on my Prado 2009 Kakadu D4D!! Although the bar looks good, i do question the workmanship!! I'll post some more detailed pics on the install later today, i've just recently had another one of my prado's gone in for an ARB bar and i must admit the workmanship is far superior..Last edited by orpedo; 28-10-2012, 11:50 AM.[color=#000080]

Hi Jayden, you seem to be missing the rubber cover over the winch inspection hole (the one on the top surface of the main beam). Did you take it off or did TJM just not supply it? I have the T13 bar but in black and it had the cover. The bar was on the Prado when I bought it so not sure if that was an optional extra.

Hi All,
Just have the ARB Bar install last week. They did a very poor installation. Please comment on the gap between the bar and the bumper. Mine is 22mm wide !! I can put my hand into the gap plus can see the inside of the bumper.
I am very unhappy with the gap and it was advised that "how it is" when i pick up the car.
Please advised what is the gap between your bar and the bumper and if they made an error.

Lqqk, around 20 mm is right these flex a lot, the body on the chassis move around a lot and with out that gap you would get damage to the body/ bar, it also looks like they have blacked out behind the bar which is better than some will, from the look of the pictures it looks like a good install to me.Last edited by Hutch; 26-11-2012, 07:23 PM.[b]Rob[/b]

Thanks guys. This makes me feel a bit better.
But I do wish that they advised me of the gap before installation and given me a choice.
I do acknowledge that overall the install is petty good but that "gap" did put me off.2010 Silver Prado 150 Series : Blackvue Camera: GME UHF Radio: TG150: ARB Deluxe winch bar: ARB Bash plate: T-Max Winch: Narva HID lights:

Buddy their is no real choice, any bar u fit no matter what brand will have a gap otherwise it will cause damage, my TJM bar on my 150 has a 20mm gap, it is about the car and how it flex's.

The TJM bar on my 150 also has a gap so it seems pretty standard. They do bounce around a lot, as others have said the gap is a safety measure to prevent damage to the bar and vehicle from any flexing.
