Ingenious rear camera mount for after market bumpers (esp. pelfreybilt)

@stickyTaco I have the high clearance bumper too, but can't answer your question without knowing exactly how far out that 9" drop extends on your particular receiver. If it extends at least 5 or 6" from the high clearance bumper you will be fine, if not there is more than likely enough play in Greg's design that you could angle the camera down a little more to cover the field of view you want. May require mild filing or trimming of the inner/lower lip and mild bending of the back/center piece where the camera mounts on his aluminum plate, but I would think that wouldn't be too difficult of a mod at all.

 

Not sure what you are asking. The video screen has always been mounted in the rear view mirror, which is the factory location. I have just moved the camera itself from the tailgate to a new location in an aftermarket metal bumper.

 

I see it now. Sorry.

 

I'm supposed to go see him this week to build a swingout for my Pelfreybilt HC rear. I'm going to have him add this to mine! @TacoWoods

 

I really like them sliders. Ill have to keep them in mind if I buy out my lease (unless I lease a 2019 tacoma)

 

Subed for when Pelfrey comes out with the dual swingout high clearance for the 3rd gen to replace my current Pelfrey standard bumper.

 

@TacoWoods sign me up for a 12-15 model please

 

@TacoWoods I'm in for a 12-15. How soon?

 

Count me in! 2015!

 

I'm interested in one for the 2008 2nd gen - they work with stock bumpers?

 

Put me down for 12-15

 

@TacoWoods

I'm in for a 2009 model!!!

 

I might be in for one, too bad I just drilled two holes in my bumper than will be there forever

Let me see if I can come up with a way to cover the holes before I get this!

 

I've added you all to the list:
@rob1208 ('12-15)
@JMPNFSH ('12-15)
@Spixelz ('12-15)
@gainman ('12-15)
@thebaker ('08-11)
?? @Pirhett ('12-15) <but two too many holes in bumper already>
?? @Bruce988jl ('08-11) <but on stock bumper>

@Bruce988jl to answer your question I think it will work on a stock bumper since it just replaces the stock lamp cover for the passenger side license plate light (you use the existing bolt for the lamp cover and the front tab of Greg's custom aluminum piece should fit in the existing stock bumper slot). Do you have something covering your tailgate handle (otherwise why would you want or need to move it on a stock set-up)?

@Pirhett let me know when you get those extra holes sorted out!

@JMPNFSH not sure how long it will take - Greg is a busy guy. I did mail him my extra template for the ('12-15) camera so he will have that shortly. Once we get to 10 solid people on the order hopefully he will be able to bust out his first batch pretty quickly, esp if he is already making another one for @TRDLOL anyway... (please keep us in the loop @TRDLOL!). Since he already did mine for the earlier cameras and he's about to do @TRDLOL's for the later cameras, he should be able to confirm soon that both work without a problem.

Hm... I guess you're right I could go that route haha. Take me off the list - thanks and awesome product!

 

I mounted both my cameras on neodymium magnets I got on Amazon for a few dollars. You can move the cameras around and if they do happen to get wacked they just move a little. After 30,000 miles and a lot of offroading they're still doing just fine.

 

I like this idea a lot. Any pics of your set-up anywhere? Which camera?

 

In for one!

Put me down for one for a 12-15
