    Same except raising my 10 year old granddaughter. Youngest kid transferring out of town from ODU to another college. Still gonna retire in 1 year. Trying to wrap up my mods before then. Pretty much done with truck. May change leaf springs for towing a 24' camper. Like you said nothing like it.

    IMO that is the best looking bumper for the 3rd Gen! Any idea on total weight up front?

    The winch is 65lb, and I would guess maybe 45-55lb on the bumper.

    I like that setup! Exactly what I want but I think I want the black wheels. So are these 4Runner TRD wheels that just so happen to work on the 16 Tacos?

    The only extra work I had to do was trim the square holes in the speaker mounts so the speaker adapters would slip through them (just make square holes a little bigger). The square holes were a little too tight. This is done easily with a razor knife. It did make for a very easy installation. I suggest remove the door panels and look at the way everything stock is mounted. Then assemble your speakers, door mounts and wiring adapters on a bench. Then everything is simply removing mounting screws from stock, place new assemblies in place, screw in the new assemblies and connect the plugs to your factory plugs. Very easy and fast. Then get a much improved sound.

    Any 4runner wheels work on the 16 Taco and most from 2012 up have better offsets.
