What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Small Kine lift, nothing crazy. Pretty happy with the stance for now. Big Thanks to the TW community for all the info, input, and feedback.

Pulled the stock TRD Off Road shocks/springs. Threw on my budget Bilstein 5100 lift. Front was loaded with the OME 887 springs, and for the rear just the 5100's w/maxtrac 1.5" cast blocks and longer ubolts.

 

so fresh. Bronze on black never gets old.
Chicks + Tacos = TW approved

 

LOL the bronze is so dark it's really tasteful with the black. Lots of jaws dropping in town with these on and her driving!

 

If you had to choose, which bumper?

I do not want swing outs, not for a daily driver, plus my ned bed rack that we are designing is going to give me all the storage i need. Also not really wanting to chop my bedsides at this point so that rules out the High Clearance bumpers. These are my two favorites, so just gotta pick which one to do.

 

Dude.. just make the cut. CBI H/C ftw.

 

The CBI lines up better.

 

I wish they had that one in a dual swing out!

 

Add a 2nd one. Not too hard if you can fab.

 

No fab skills for this guy

 

Gonna have to vote CBI, I like how it conforms with the bedsides, looks cleaner.

 

Both are nice bumpers but I opted for the Fab Four premium. $829.00 shipped from Bumpersuperstore +, a free 20' tow strap . See my post back a page or two,fit and finish is great and it blends well with the body lines of the bed

 

Bump for the pic

 

Little more bulky than what I am looking for. Great looking bumper for sure however. The CBI bumper is in that same ballpark however I can get a smokin deal on the Pelfrey.

 

I t doesn't look much bigger than either of the two you listed and has a step under the plate...

 

I want the hitch tucked up and out from under the bumper, that's a big one for me, but in checking dimensions the fabfours sticks out a bit further than I want as well. Looking to create some clearance, add protection and still have use of my back up sensors.

 

Makes sense.

 

I've got the Pelfrey and pretty stoked with it- Having the tow package tucked up out of the way really improves clearance and fit and finish were spot on...

 

Hahaha Yea member since 2011. But new here...

 

you have some installed pics? the pics on their website are pretty weak.

 

Why did you do this?
