I am currently looking for a winch bumper for my 96 rodeo. everywhere I look I find lots of stuff for 98+ rodeos, but practicaly nothing for a 96. Is there any way to mount the 2nd gen calmini winch bumper on my rig? Any ideas on where I can find a similar one for a 96?

Your best bet is to use an ARB bumper. They list them for a 1990-1992, which should work, although it may require some slight modification. They are the only company that "Produces" a winch bumper for our trucks anymore. I beleive, if you actually call Calmini, they will tell you they are no longer producing any bumpers for Isuzu's.
The other options are to try and find a used DOR bumper (Darlington Off-Road) or have one custom made to what you want.
Good luck.

Thanks for the info. I will try and locate one first. I am sure it is much less expensive than fabing one.

Worth a call to Independent4x to see what they want for one. I know Matt has made a fairly light tube bumper for winch for a few guys, but can make the heavy bullbar style too.

I am still doing bumpers and such, pm me your contact info and I will give you a call and he welds really well, too. Thanks for helping me out with the XJ bumper Joe, your welds are the only ones I didn't have to grind down <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
