    Will other winches besides the Warn line fit into/onto this bumper? And what are the thoughts on the bumper itself?

    Can't comment on the winch question but you'll probably get a lot of negative comments on appearance and most will suggest going with a smaller vendor. I think the ARB bumper is one of the best looking bumpers for an on road Tacoma - I.e. One that doesn't need clearance or increased angle for off roading. It has a larger steel face in front of each wheel which, I think, would be better for the daily commute vs some that have a thin edge in that area. It's all personal taste on whether you like it or not.

    Yeah this is not going to be a rock crawler or anything. Mainly hunting, some daily driving and such. Gonna couple it with OME lift kit/882 coils, NitroCharger Sport front and rear shocks and Dakar rear springs. 15x8 matte black rims with ?????? size tires.

    The bumper uses the standard bolt pattern for off road winches, so most other brands will fit. However, make sure you relocate the solenoid box for easy access. Doing so later is a PINA. I have to agree with @Buckaroo1993 that is one of the better looking bumpers on the market. It also the only bumper that is rated for your OEM airbag sensors (at least that I have been able to see).
