    Brad's got the prototype built. Now it's just a matter of getting everything plugged into software and then handing it over to production and making the first production prototype.

    Patience grasshoppers... It will be awhile before we have anything to show... CAD then schedule for a production prototype.

    It's a bad time of the year to do new stuff as we are buried as is the machine shop and everyone else involved but we'll get it done.

    In the process of doing a new Tundra bumper too right now... but the 05-11 Taco will come first.

    My goal is still to have production ready by May and I'm sure I'll do a very short group buy so get your pennies collected.

    Because the AF sent me to Washington, but I'm from Oregon. Spent 10 years in Kansas... not my favorite area.

    Here's a sneak peak with a few quick and dirty photos of the production prototype:

    KIMG0401.jpg KIMG0402.jpg KIMG0403.jpg KIMG0404.jpg KIMG0405.jpg

    Very similar to our 2012+ version but 3/4" deeper, a little shorter on the ends and of course our new 1" wide shackle mounts.

    I'm trying to keep it at $499 like our others and I think we can but it will be no more than $525.
