Amazing, I contacted a local 4x4 Shop here in Silverdale called Northridge 4x4. Explained that I was going to order a custom lift kit set from ADD and I would like Northridge to install them.
Nope, he declined, said he is unfamiliar with their products and didn't want to install... wow.... he must be plenty busy to be willing to turn away a simple install job like that .....

Northridge might be local to you, but they are one of the largest online off road parts retailers in the nation. Extremely well known in the Jeep community. Doing a body lift is very easy. You can do it in your driveway with a decent lift jack and a few blocks of wood. Montero's are very easy. Just take it in, let them see it.
This is a response that I received from ARB when I asked about a deluxe bumper:
"Hello Roger! Thank you for your interest in our products. Unfortunately, the 1981-2000 Winch Bar for the Montero was discontinued years ago due to lack of demand. We do not do any experimental test fitting here. Your best bet is to coordinate with a custom vehicle outfitter to see if they can accommodate this. Das Mule Expedition Outfitters, Northridge 4 x 4, and Billy Bob's Off Road are a few that come to mind. Northridge is in Silverdale."
What I really want, is this! It is the perfect look that I am going for, this is the ARB bar for the XTerra...
