Pelfreybilt Off-Road

@Wat3rdog I just removed it and cut off the piece that is tacked onto the center vertical support brace. I really didn't want to fuck with relocating the solenoid on my winch. There's other supports for the headlights where that center horizontal brace bolts on, those are more than enough to support the headlights. There's no left or right movement without the brace.

I have a Warn Zeon 12-S Platinum, which is considerably larger than the M8000S, installed in the PB front bumper. Had to remove the center brace as described above to not have to relocate the solenoid.

 

Would you have room to mount a RI SR there?

 

Anyone have the battery cage with an Optima in there?

 

@TXTaco13

 

sick! I was sondering about that. I have the step but didn't want to upgrade to the bumper yet because my kids would have nothing to step up on.

too bad there's no way to shorten it a little

 

Brooks...plenty metal guys on our group that can cut and shorten that for you...

 

Bumper looks good in white! I was gonna do that when I got mine, but wasn't sure if I was going with too much white. Actually looks damn good. Maybe after mine gets trashed I'll do white...

 

Exactly

That's a good idea. How would you go about cutting it? I'd like mine to sit about 1/2-3/4" below the bumper collapsed.

 

I don't have one on my truck, but I'm sure a good metal guy could figure out the mod. Also...I have a step already...my tires...

 

That would be cool but some how I can't picture it possible. I'll ask Nate!!!!

 

I very well could be wrong, but I don't think you can cut the step. Its bolted to the frame, but its made out of some type of like rubber/hard plastic polymer. The collapsible step is definitely not metal, or even aluminum. It has that composite hard plastic feel of the Tacoma's bed. Maybe internally its metal, covered in plastic! Who even know's anymore haha.

 

I wish I would have snapped a pic today while at the dealership. After getting an oil change I stopped to chat with someone away from my truck. All of the sales guys were trying to pull the numbers on my truck so they could make a sale with it. I now think I have a new game to play thanks to the new bumper.

 

Had my Pelfrey front for a while now, still painting it, JUST got my rear high clearance today and asked Tyler Pelfrey about shocks, but I didn't know which ones I got since it had been so long but looked up my receipt today and I have the OME 887's on front with Bilstein 5100's, and the back is Biltsein 5100's and the factory overload and leafs with the Toytec Progressive 3 Leaf Add A Leaf. Does anyone thing I will need to get different Leafs or front springs?
Not sure of what setting on the front billies, emailed wheelers to see if they remember or have it documented as I did in house build on my struts.
Questions, suggestions?

 

It's gotta be made out of metal. No way any other type of material could hold up my big ass

 

That's what I use too.

 

Do we get a TW discount of pelfrey??

 

Unfortunately no. They do multiple sales during the year. I did mine during one for both bumpers, tire carrier and all 4 skids, and it came fairly decent pricing.

 

Darn. That's what I thought.. Just missed the 10% off sale last month so had to check. Guess I'll wait for the next

 

Finally was able to spool up my winch line

 

almost 2 weeks down, ready to finally get rid of the bull bar! Lol
