    Isn't a jeep rear bumper like a straight piece of steel? Lol

    In my messed up mind, this is still such a solid solution! I love everything about this.

    I could walk into 4WP tomorrow with a stock jeep and walk out rubicon ready. Tacoma's are not as well supported.


    Here's a brute force rear local to you, it's $300 more than you'd pay direct but it's local and available today.

    These pop up occasionally, especially on Vilmont where the Bros go to dump their gear when they get bored of the new hobby. If you get lucky you'll find one that you can flip and end up with a small rental fee for your trip.

    I might end up doing something like this also if cutting into the bed is the same measurement.

    Thanks! If I took my time to make it right I might still have it, but I slapped it together the night before a Moab trip and it was rough haha

    I’m thinking of doing something like this as a temporary bumper.
