    It's an hybrid style bumper that will let me hang the OEM plastic back over it. thatway it looks like a normal tacoma when I have to drive people for work, or drive through occupied teratory.

    Just be glad you haven't had the Jeep "death wobble" yet. I will never drive a Jeep after having that happen to me, scared the $h!t out of me and I'm pretty adventurous......

    Are stock recovery points ok on stock trucks.

    Is a 9500# shackle and recovery strap strong enough. Probably not right.

    Yes.

    If your frame is so rusty they break when we pull you out, that's on you.

    I'm looking at you @deeznutz

    Line dampener FTW.
    Works for winch lines and snatch straps!

    I still classify those as dampeners. Blankets, heavy jackets as well.
    Ummm, maybe NOT the t-shirt. Maybe a little too light.
