Default JK TJM t3 Front bumper question

Hey guys, Ive found a used a TJM bumper for sale, but I dont know much about it.

Alas, I also know very little about how JK bumpers attach since I have my Tj for another couple of days and Pick up my New to me JKU on saturday.

I've attached a few pictures and i'm wondering if anyone can give me a hand.

Does this bar look complete? I know it might not have everything, but as long as it has all the stock options I can find the aftermarket parts later.

Does it look like it'll bolt on properly? Does it seem to be missing any of the mounting points.

Thanks a heap guys.

Can't help with your questions but if you are planning on sand blasting then powder coating the bar, unless it is going for a steal it will probably work out similar money to a new one....

Never seen how that bar mounts up but looks to be missing the winch.

Most bars mount using 4 bolts or studs on each side...... I don't know why that one has only a pair on each side, but I wouldn't trust that for recovering off that bar....there must be pieces missing for at least the mount.

Its missing the winch cradle section.
The cradle mounts with the 4 fasteners each side as per what LeighP says.

Unless its dirt cheap I wouldn't bother. Brand new TJM bars are around $1100.

To restore it and getting the missing parts doesn't worth the hassles. Better get a new one.
