I'm very satisfied with it. It offers more clearance, has survived a fender bender with zero damage, and provides solid recovery points.

Installation is about as easy as it comes. You'll spend more time disassembling your old bumper, than you will installing the RCI bumper. Honestly, the longest effort for me, was wiring in the reverse lights.

The only negative I have to offer, is the loss of BSM and cross traffic alert. However, I've had my bumper for a couple years now, and I haven't had an accident or a close call, due to not having BSM.

 

Still have my stock bumper and my BSM doesn't work.....so yeah, I guess sensors don't like bouncing around offroad

 

That's honestly what finally triggered me to purchase the RCI bumper. The BSM just never worked consistently, so I had very little heartburn ditching it.

 

If you end up buying it... be aware that if you keep shackles mounted, make sure they're never rotated upwards, when you drop the tailgate. Will be an expensive lesson...

FYI... more info for you...

Ok I concede, You guys are right. Buying extra racks or playing Tetris to get things angled just right to fit in are far superior to a longbed that you can just toss shit in and drive off.

 

I don't think I was trying to convince you. Just explaining that your rational doesn't apply to everyone's situation.

If I use my truck as a dishwasher, I really don't see why you'd concern yourself with it...

 

dude that alpine is nice!!!!!!!!!! Might work for me I have a stock HU with an added amp for kicker speakers. does it retain all OEM steering wheel function etc?

 

speaking of those BSMs I have a new set you want mine?

 

I have a set too... Tradesies?

 

With a Maestro it does, however you'd only be buying whatever came in the box and I'd keep the Maestro/parking override and the extras I bought (since my new stereo is compatible and going into another Taco.)

Using a Maestro you could even remap the seek/volume buttons to match literally every other car ever (and also common sense...) --which I will be requesting for the next install.

The headunit is great and the display is giant. I think I paid $1,050 new and would keep it but found an even larger screen. It's still not Tesla big, but 1" is 1".

 

ahhh I see. Can you send me a link to that part by chance? If you are going into a new taco I am assuming why not keep the alpine

broken link to yt? wth. Interested in any trades by chance?

 

For the Alpine?

Kind of trying to scrounge cash because this out of state dealer wants the truck paid off in full before pick-up.

I could be persuaded to trade depending what you've got.

 

some really nice Baja Lp4s..... in white. Great lights but I am going to downgrade

 

You just got those! lol

 

I know, I removed them , and I have some Baja squad pros in IR 940nm models. nods or die bruh!

 

Dang those are serious lights. I have a set of DD SS3 Sport in amber I just picked up or we'd have a deal.

 

Oh right, testing. I forgot about that.

 

Just give me those, and we have a deal my dude. I bought them a few months ago, great lights but I am doing alot of testing (work) with various lights etc. I think I paid 760 or some shit , wiring harness and I still might have da box too
