SSO Slimlime Hybrid bumper install and review

That's great news, thanks very much for the info!

 

These are great looking bumpers, I am truly impressed with the integration with the front of the truck. If I make the swap to an aftermarket bumper this I’d definitely top of my list. Sounds like the customer service is excellent also. That is one of the most important things concerning a purchase in my opinion.

 

Anyone by chance know of a good write up on the 5th gen 4runner SSO install?

 

Looking good bro!

 

Looks awesome.

Can't wait for when it's all one piece. This bummer looks stunning. Only other bumper I have considered is the CBI one.

 

The bumper looks great.

What worries me, will the airbag deploy same way as the stock front bumper if you get into accident?

 

I don't think anyone would be able to say for certain, but I'd highly doubt this bumper would have any impact on the airbag sensors.

Keep in mind, the sensors are not located in the bumper, but rather in the engine bay. If I had to guess, they would be MORE likely to deploy, as one of the inputs they take is changes in momentum. With the reduction in crumple zone (bumper and crash bar) the truck would come to a more sudden stop, deploying the airbags sooner than with the OEM bumper.

As I said, the difference in dynamics is probably negligible, and not something that I'd lose sleep over.
