Building a Tacoma rear bumper for under $350 in less than 20 minutes!

[@mittroboomin]

Video came out just in time for me to watch while eating dinner 😎

[@fiftycallibers]

Most relatable comment 😂

[@devinhighbarger9314]

Love the true DIY build style. Makes me want to try my hand at welding real bad!

[@sh1nan1gan5]

It's great to see your ideas come to life using your own hands. Keep it up.

[@OverlandUnderBudget]

hell ya turned out great. I love clean simple design. Welds look FIRE

[@CentralCoastTundra]

Dude this turned out awesome! Been loving watching the Tacoma build progress man! Keep it up 🤘🏽

[@mikes4x4garage]

Thank you bro!

[@andybowers7732]

I love when you instantly regret your decision and verbally bad mouth yourself at 5:55. I laughed VERY out loud. Great video and keep them coming!!

[@mikes4x4garage]

I will! Thanks for watching 👍🏻👍🏻

[@UnlocalizedSimulator]

That 6.0 is a beauty, you should make some content on those Super Duty's

[@mikes4x4garage]

You’re not the first to say it! I think I will!

[@RoyalOceanRWB]

Mike upload more please. This is still the only 4x4 content I look forward to watching

[@12345doughnuts]

I get so fired up every time you drop a vid. great work as always.

[@bernybuilds]

Finally! A diy bumper that doesn’t require a shop worth of tools. Thanks I will be trying this on my 3rd gen 4 runner

[@bajar.m.6953]

The best part it’s “you did it yourself” you should feel proud of yourself. 👍🏼

[@PacoPayne]

Super clean bumper man! Love the content, can’t wait to see you wheel the taco 👍

[@bigcountry6697]

Absolutely loved the video. What I enjoyed the most was your humble personality. Great job all the way around!

[@TheJessiepacheco1992]

Good job young man it feels so much better when you build it yourself

[@mikes4x4garage]

It really does! More work but it’s something to be proud of

[@tyronejohnson3030]

Another Nice Job! Love your "I'm going to figure this out" attitude. Very creative!!

[@mikes4x4garage]

Gotta have that when you do it yourself!

[@El_Fig_408]

Awesome job! This is the kind of content I appreciate, honest, simple, DIY…good job! Picked up a ‘99 Taco for my son, gonna show this to him so he see what’s possible!

[@mikes4x4garage]

Great truck for him! Thanks for checking out the vid!

[@sheayamaguchi9317]

Arguably some of the best content on KZbin.

[@mikes4x4garage]

You’re too nice!

[@JB50713]

I'm not a welder but your welds are looking good! Bumper looks wicked.

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

Dude, this is epic! Well done! So satisfying to watch. I don’t know a thing about welding but I’m blown away by your work!

[@mikes4x4garage]

thank you!

[@aussie-seb]

Nice build Mike, love the step by step! Only two things I'd add are a second catch to lock it open so it doesn't smack the tailgate, and some flush mount LED reversing pods?

[@akrafty1]

Man you knocked that out of the park! Thats the way to do it. DIY FTW!!

[@mikes4x4garage]

DIY ! All day

[@KirbyLouis]

those triangle pieces you used for your frame/tire mounts... do the same for the spindle to prevent sag

[@taurus66]

First you have a great truck i had one second i like how you’re fabricating everything yourself and not like other guys who spend thousands and you made it yourself.

[@bigdaddyhimself]

Great DIY tire carrier; came out perfect. Thanks for the tips 👍

[@mikes4x4garage]

Thank you!

[@robertchavez56]

Dude really hope your KZbin channel blows up with subscribers! You’re videos are awesome man!

[@mikes4x4garage]

[@fernandojrrenteria6887]

This guys is awesome, love all your projects 👍

[@xxcarlosxx16]

I love your content man. Your video helped me build my own rock sliders on my 3rd gen and i plan to do this bumper as well. Keep up the great work.

[@mikes4x4garage]

Oh nice! Glad I could help ya!

[@stanleykachuik2589]

Just got my Amazon plasma cutter. I have a couple projects to clear out of the que. Then ima start fabbing on the Taco as well! Great job on the tire carrier.

[@mikes4x4garage]

Sweet , let me know how they go!

[@carlos8587]

Your diy is awesome, I just picked up a late model 1999 tacoma. Going to use you Chanel as inspiration.

[@BeyondTRD4R]

Great project! already built a bumper so this tire carrier will be a great addition

[@micstudmuffin]

This is amazing, literally a dream truck.

[@Halfwheelhell]

very well done. those are welds you should be proud of. thanks for sharing!

[@ehutzel9223]

Inspired me to try and make my own front and rear swing out for my 98 tacoma. great job

[@mikes4x4garage]

There ya go! Let me know how it comes out!

[@aaronhagler8455]

This truck has turned out so good!! Crazy transformation.

[@mikes4x4garage]

Yeah I was just looking at what it was before !

[@garrettblaster]

Beautiful truck, watching you inspires me to fix up my 04 sequoia

[@willannunziato]

Post more videos!!! Love them

[@ebrown1221]

Man I love this! I’m not a great welder or fabricator but I’m going to use this as a how to and try and make one for my Tacoma this winter. Also love those wheels. I have the same ones but in black.

[@mikes4x4garage]

Yeah give it a go and learn along the way!

[@jacksprrow]

LOVE this channel. Keep doing tacoma mods! Cant get enough man.

[@gregorygorden6610]

Can’t wait to see you start wheeling it!!

[@jackeely54]

Don’t know why you don’t have 250k subs. Great videos. Would love to see more suspension stuff if you’ve got plans for it.

[@TheNewps]

Excent job but you need to move that bumper out another 1/2". Once you start going down a bumpy trail the body and the swingarm will move.

[@mikes4x4garage]

Hasn’t been an issue yet. Thanks!

[@luiscruz-no3ib]

You should think of a stop for the tire carrier when it is open

[@mikes4x4garage]

Yea I had a plan for one, still trying to figure out how to incorporate it correctly though.

[@TheExtra40414]

ahh man, so awesome!! I know you have a life outside of youtube, but I am always down to watch every second you post!

[@mikes4x4garage]

Thank you! I’ll try to pump out the content faster!

[@jeffreyjohnston6843]

[@TheCreateOutdoors]

Thanks for this video Mike! I didn't know they made a hinge kit!

[@GarryFisher-e6k]

I like your work and ambition!

[@BubsMTB]

Would be dope to see a build for a 99-06 Silverado/gmc offroad rig!

[@landonschuessler7209]

maybe add a second spring pin by the hinge to lock it open also! nice job man

[@wilyceyote]

[@timothymcglade105]

Great vids. You deserve more subscribers. Keep them coming!

[@Anomic-mo9ji]

14:07 Just thought while watching this- I'm going to clean up and paint a used rotor next time I change my brakes, save it for my tire carrier when I build my rear bumper.

[@adambrown7741]

Killer set up man! Watched this and like 3 other videos. You have a new sub!

[@mikes4x4garage]

Hey welcome and thanks for subbing!

[@SENDITorBENDIT]

Another Great video and for the cost of the bumper, can't beat that.

[@mikes4x4garage]

Not too bad right? Much cheaper than buying one

[@fadeddoggie]

Checking back every day in hopes of a video. Over a month feels so long :(

[@DeuceDeuceBravo]

Great design! Beefy! Welds are looking damn good. 👍

[@mikes4x4garage]

👍🏻👍🏻 thanks homie!

[@roryfruhling9100]

Great work bro. As always great attitude

[@itsallminor6133]

What about the frame? I'm wondering on weak parts on the frame that could use plating, re-enforcement. Maybe a boxed cross member. Live in rust/snow area too. Any ideas of frame reinforcement?

[@theharbingerofconflation]

can we talk about the structural two by fours in there?

[@4X4ish]

Could you post a link for the pipe bender and the plasma cutter?

[@kevinmeek]

Turned out great!
