Does he have a web site or business? What style and what was the total cost? Enjoy the new bumper.

I don't know any more about the company other than the fact that they are importing TJM products. Mark can answer any questions you might have at CMIKnoxUSA@aol.com. I ended up ordering a front winch bumper, a t-17, for 489.00 without shipping and handling. Desert Rat's website doesn't reflect the new prices after the Hella fallout, but I'm sure it will soon. If this goes well, I'll be ordering a rear bumper also.

Apart from producing OEM Equipment for Motor Industry (Including exports to USA) they are the parent company of TJM !

I know that 4x4 Connection will be one of them. I've got the TJM rear bumper w/Swing Arm on my 80, which I've really abused the last two years at Tellico. Its held up well to the abuse with the only damage being one of the taillight lens which I had to create a patch in order to pass Virginia State Inspection.
