ARB Bumpers Compatability

Why is there a difference in the 97-01 Bumpers versus the 96 and older? There is nothing different about their descriptions or price really.

is there something I am not thinking about? I know 97+ OEM had different bumpers but arent the mounts the same?

Maybe body lines or the turn signal light guards.

the difference is on the side where they wrap around the fender to the flare. The 97 up stock bumper corner is part of the flare, the older ones are not.
