Thank you!

Nice job, very detailed thanks! #toyotaoverlanders

[@mikenc1986]

I have an idea for a rear bumper with swing out tire carrier that i believe would be a good option for a manufacturer to make. Would be great to speak to someone about my idea n see if its a viable option

[@luke-te3sr]

If you dont have Fram support bracket will it rip off the vehicle while winching

[@D_Cali_Life]

What if I’m missing the 2 small tabs ???

[@overlanding_tbd3000]

Does this install also work for the overland bumper?

[@1701odin]

*Fender liner magically reappears*

[@bangabruhh8291]

Is the bumper suppose to come with any additional hardware? Or is everything the existing hardware already on the truck?

[@wanderingdaze7018]

Did this solo picking up the bumper was the hardest part

[@jardoo]

Will this work with lightbars mounted behind the grill? I have two, upper and lower part of the grill with the SDHQ mount. Also, do you install the winch onto the bumper before or after installing it onto the truck? Also, can you cut the plastic without removing it from the truck? Cant I just take an angle grinder straight to the plastic while its on the vehicle? thanks.

[@c4fabrication397]

We recommend removing the bumper, but I have heard of some people that have done it without removing. You will want to install the winch first, as it'd be nearly impossible with it installed on the truck already. As far as the lights behind the grill, we can't guarantee that it will or will not work, but don't see why not. Somebody has to do it first! Let us know how it goes!

[@useryggfdcc]

Super easy to remove the bumper on a Tacoma.

[@cullennowell]

Just ordered mine! What setup is that truck running lift and tires wise?

[@c4fabrication397]

I believe he's has a king setup, and running 285s

[@luke-te3sr]

Man... im working on building my own on my 2021... im in over my head.. no kit just building it myself

[@jameskap3248]

Is this a private shop or a shop where I can get this installed? Just wondering I seen the Hawaii plates on the truck.

[@c4fabrication397]

This install was done at our shop in South Dakota just so we could make the install video. The customer is from Hawaii but stationed here for Airforce.

[@MuddyDrivewayProductions]

I was wondering the same thing. Aloha

[@useryggfdcc]

It the Toyota TSS still working after this bumper installation?

[@MrJml2009]

Where can I get one? Is there a link to the product? I just bashed my 2021 front bumper, plastic crap?

[@chrisginoc]

What tires are those? I think i saw the Cooper logo. Are they at or mt tread?

[@c4fabrication397]

Not 100% sure. This isn't one of our company vehicles.

[@oorgledos]

they are Cooper ST Maxx.

[@michaeltaylor7996]

They really made it more work with the 3rd gens didn't they?

[@brendoz]

Are you guys doing this install in hawaii???

[@blakeberlin6295]

Does it work with the accident avoidance tech?

[@yeahh_idk_]

High and no bar do I believe. Low bar does not.

[@theguavanator6434]

What is the torque specs??

[@burqueboy07]

Will there be an option for aluminum?

[@c4fabrication397]

No

[@TheDrakanMaster124]

Is there a rated recovery points Does it work with the 2020 model

[@keef_taco2732]

Let’s hope so, installing on my off-road 2020

[@ashton3140]

[@karlmench716]

Which light source does a light bar get connect to?

[@tuckervaldeze4679]
