    I have been searching through all the forums trying to figure out which High clearance rear I want to order. I have narrowed it down between @RelentlessFabrication and @Mobtown Offroad

    Options I want are:
    -Fold Down Table
    -Hitch
    -Cutouts for s2's
    -Relocated camera
    -locking pin
    -Possible second hitch on swing out for bike rack to open with the swing out instead of having to unload bikes when I have them loaded and need to get into the bed. I have seen only a couple picture of this. Not a necessity but a want.

    I am having trouble finding information and pictures of folks with these bumpers and options all together and how they like them. I pull a small trailer a couple times a year. So want to know how peoples experiences are pulling a trailer. If there are some threads I may have missed that this information is in already, please post a link.

    One thing that may help sway your decision is Mobtown offers a 10% military discount.

    I'm running all their armor and have a rear bumper built out very similarly to how you want it. I absolutely love it and the construction. It's pure freaking beef. Also all rear bumpers come with a flip up bracket for the license plate. Sometimes it's the little things that matter.

    Ive looked at cbi, c4, brute force, sos, rpm, and a couple other and these are the two that stuck out to me with design and options available. Do you have any others to look at?

    Eddy over at SOS Concepts has done a lot of custom work for his customers. This is what he made for me (I requested the empty driverside swing out and the bed side protection). He has since updated his rear bumper bed sides with a super beefy design and a portion that makes it easier to stand on to use to get stuff on the roof rack.

    All of our Tacoma rear bumpers are built with the same internal design. We basically built a hitch copying the Toyota style of hitch and materials of construction and then built a bumper around it and tied the bumper into the hitch to make the strongest design we could think of. Here are a few pictures to show what people have towed off of our bumper.

    To answer your question, no we cannot state that our product is rated to pull the same amount of weight as what Toyota claims. But that is because of the liabilities and the cost to get that done. But like I said, we have no doubt in our mind that you would ever have a problem pulling the trucks factory tow ratings.

    Here is a link to our Instagram page going in to more detail on our design: https://www.instagram.com/p/BgrDMxGhIqG/?igshid=gvew8hk59oew

    Looking for pictures of flare with this bumper. Wondering how exactly the flare hangs on once losing that lower bolt security and just holding on by the oe clip there
