Relentless Fabrication Hybrid Front and Black Diamond Series HC rear bumpers

Hello Everyone. It’s about time we got something good for the 4th Gen Tacoma’s aside from some stealth bumpers and bolt on rears. I present to you. Relentless Fabrication’s Hybrid front bumper and their Black Diamond Series rear High Clearance bumper.

I’m sure the guys with the TRD Pro grille with the lightbar in the grille can have a non-hoop or a lower hoop variation. Not too sure about a higher one just yet.

As for the guys with the BSM sensors and stuff, because i don’t have any sensors.. there will be tabs that the sensors can be inputted into to still utilize them. Let me know what you guys think!

 

Front looks good.

But, I think that winch access (to the drum) is not ideal. 99% of aftermarket bumper manufacturers sacrifice winch location and access to the drum and controls in favor of “looking good”.

 

For the rear I don’t see a spare under there. Why? Does it still fit?

 

Thanks.
Easy drum access is not really something you'll find possible on bumpers short of a top mounted winch on a Jeep/Bronco, or similar.
If you dig into one of these new rigs you'll find things much more complicated and limited in comparison to previous gen trucks and other rigs like Jeeps, we still give a generous sized cutout to actually make it possible to use the freespool which is something that many others on the market fall short at. Realistically for all but a small number of people these days they're shopping based on looks first, quality and price next, and true functionality tends to fall back lower in their checkboxes.

Spare will not fit. And thats for several reasons- As you may notice this bumper is much higher clearance than the stock one, the majority of the spare would hang below the bumper negating gained clearance and be visually unappealing. Additionally we cut the hitch cross member out of the frame and shortened it which reduces spare tire space even further.
The rear bumper is definitely not for everyone, its intended to be a more extreme option.

 

Sup bro. Let me just say I was never gonna keep the spare underneath there anyway. It’s bed mounted. And so is my jack. I went this route to get the most departure angle as possible. Appreciate the love tho as always!

 

Solid responses, thanks!

 

Looks fantastic.

Now you just need to get OTT tuned to help get all that weight moving faster.

 

That, and 37’s! lol
