    This is a 3rd person thread, as in my dad bought a 2020 tundra and smoked a deer the other night so he asked if I could help him find a lift kit and an off road bumper to make it less expensive while hitting them.
    He likes the look of my all pro Baja bumper on my tacoma and has a warn winch to go in the bumper as well. I've done some looking but I just feel like the selections are very limited. Arb has a slick bumper but it only says 2014-2018. Does that mean they won't fit a 2020?
    He is also looking to lift the truck modestly, i went with fox coilovers and shocks on my tacoma but I know i paid more than I needed to for what I use the truck for. Are the brands basically the same from tacoma to tundra? As in kings and fox run about the best quality but highest price?
    Really any help at all would be much appreciated.

    The safety collision sensor on Tundras since 2018 have limited manufacturers of bumpers. You can still buy them and fit them. 100% nothing has changed except the grills.

    Also if you can, try to find one with holes cut for the parking sensors, or disable the parking sensors.

    I would recommend using direct communication with a vendor for a large purchase like a bumper.

    Suspension is just like tacoma, you can use spacers, 5100's, foxes, ome, kings. If you do get a bumper there's upgraded springs etc. Even shims for the moderate lean that tundras get from all the weight on the left.

    Okay perfect you just answered alot of my questions thank you. Im having the same guy from guardian motorsports that helped me with my suspension kit and bumper help me out again
    I'm not positive if my dad wants to keep the sensors or not but its good to keep in mind.

    He really likes the look of the fab 4 bumper with the stinger and winch compatability. Is there anything anyone can tell me about it, has anyone else used it?
    He wants to go up to 33s and he's looking at these for rims but he's wondering if he should go with a wider rim than 8inches
