Kennesaw Mountain - Rear Bumpers

[ttora4runner]

Anyone running one of these bumpers on your vehicle? Came across this on ih8mud, never knew this company exisited and is one of the few places I've found that has 4runner rear bumpers.

Ive heard very bad things about them. I almost ordered from there before I did my rear bumper, as they were one of the only places that sold a decent rear bumper for a reasonable price.

Do a search on them before buying. I did and it prompted me to send an email asking a few direct questions, and the response alone made me not want to buy from there.

I don't really want to get into the whole (long) story unless you really need to hear it. There is plenty of info already out there on this guy. My "opinion" based on my personal experience: STAY AWAY from KMA!

Give Steve a call at Sonoran Steel in Tempe, AZ. He does excellent work.

KMA or Sonoran? I will probably order my TJM from Sonoran.

I will probably order my TJM from Sonoran.

You will have to re-think that. From the Sonoran site: Update August 2008: TJM has decided to withdraw from the US Market. TJM bumpers are no longer for sale in the United States thought the Knoxville warehouse. We do not have any bumpers or parts in stock.

Yep I emailed Steve direct about some TJM bumpers and they are long long gone, none in stock no way you will get one.

This is what I'm now looking at for the front: http://www.shrockworks.com/Toyota-4Runner-Winch-Bumper-Front-Bumper-Bull-Bar-Offroad-pr-16217.html

And for the rear: http://www.irbisoffroad.com/4R_rear_bumper_w-tire.asp

Got one of those, just need to install it.

Crap! The Shrockworks bumper is extremely nice-looking but out of my price range. Looks like I will have to go with a matching front All Pro Bumper now.

Oh its totally out of my price range as well, but one can dream, can't they??

Have you looked at the ARB bumpers?

The shrockworks bumper that I have was part of another deal. Otherwise I wouldn't have one.

If you're not stoked about the Shrok bumper, i'll take it off your hands

I know there are lots of bad things said about KMA on the net, but my experience with them went fine. I posted up about it here.

I also put an ARB bumper on my rig, which had a better finish than the KMA bumper but I still had to mod it for my application.

There are pics of both bumpers in my build thread as well.
