    Very few companies will have a load rated aftermarket bumper.

    Though likely strong enough to tow, most companies don't have the funding to invest in proof loading.

    Yeah, probably just gonna send it. Brute Force Fab says their bumper can handle anything the stock one can

    That’s what I figured

    DAMN RIGHT. :cheers:

    Check out @WarFab Armor. Their stuff is listed as meeting class 3 specs.

    Was going to recommend them too as they're the only ones I've seen provide a rating.

    Brute force fab fan. I towed a 5k fully rigged triton 18 trx that weighed at truckstop scale in my 2013 & 2015 taco for 5 years and some 2k round trips with brute force fab. 1st pic is 2015 w bff hc rear, 2nd pic is 2013 same bff hc rear. So yeah bff hc rear also kept from tearing my 7 pin trailer plug from ripping off the below bumper mount. My bff front & rear kept my damage way down after a big rear end by a drunk in an f250 hd that slammed 5 stopped vehicles, me first. Pic of white Cherokee in front of my bff, then pic of my front after.
