    I asked that when I called and was told it could be included. I don't know if there was an extra charge or not. Mounts to the swingout tube below the spare tire, or wherever else you can fit it.

    I'm assuming no charge. I paid in full then asked about it and he said he'll put it in.

    Just wondering if anyone has any pics of a BFF front bumper on a 3rd Gen Tacoma. The rear bumpers with swing outs are making me all tingly....

    Patch, I'm 90% sure I saw your bumper at Blue Flame powdercoating when I went to check out my bed rack. Looked awesome! Mine should hopefully be ready tomorrow!

    These work pretty good. Nice clean cut.

    All you need is a angle grinder with a cutoff wheel. Bedside is thin material and cuts super easy.

    I guess I should add a shot of mine! Billy does great work and this bumper is awesome! I should have gone this route a long time ago.

    I don't have an angle grinder. And those scissors look cheaper. So I'll probably just get the scissors. :help:

    With the amount of work done to your truck, you really should have an angle grinder. The cheapo HF ones actually aren't that bad if you're not going to be running it all the time. On sale right now for $17.:thumbsup:

    Lol I know I was kidding. I was just wondering what people used, my buddy used a multi master, but I don't have one. Just making sure an angle grinder will do the trick.

    Also keep an eye on your bedsides. I believe toppers on bedsides cut for high clearance bumpers have been stressed before. Looking forward to seeing the bumper on your truck.

    Brute force armor is the only armor!
    Got my new butt installed today! Amazing product I must say. Build is excellent. So happy with how it turned out... I just need to swap out my crappy AAL for some dakars plus the AAL. Got s good amount of sag going, especially with my rear storage.

    I have the bilstein 5100 extended length. I have plenty of room for lift. I went that rout cause I know I'd need them eventually.
