    Amen... I'll happily take a trespassing charge if i get caught.

    On the same topic. Any suggestions for dirt roads designed for a raptor near Vegas. I think I'll go that route instead of speed on pavement

    No reviews on the harrop at the time. It does suck starting from square one. At least last time I had wheels with 33’s and front lift that swapped over to the 4Runner. This time I am going to do it right the first time though. No cheapo Toytec coilovers(they were free, I would never pay for them)

    Prolly do the bigger hoop with side support option.

    That looks good too.:drool:
    Too bad most are designed with the fairlead angled down. But it's not destined for rock crawling, so shouldn't be an issue.

    Yeah, I don’t get why they do that. Maybe looks sleeker? No clue. I am also tempted by this one from rpmfab.

    :cheers:

    Just don't do their triple hoop option. It looks more like a fence rail welded on there.

    Yeah I'm guessing it's just where the winch needs to be mounted combined with trying to keep the bumper from looking like an iron cross horrendous thing with a huge...everything.

    I think its because they want the winch as close to top frame level as possible, for strength, and it looks better to have the angle instead of the fat lip look. So the compromise is the angled fairlead mount. :notsure:

    It'd be relatively simple if you were fabbing your own to use a roller inside the bumper to get it to come out at the flat spot. But, trying to adapt that for any type of winch would be a pain.

    Rpmfab also has a rear bumper I like. I have to get a lift and wheels before I get bumpers though :annoyed::angrygirl:
