    I can't find the frame brackets. They may have gone to scrap. Do you still want the bar?

    Yeah sure I'll still take it. May have to hit Toyota for some brackets if I can't find any laying around but I'll take what you've got.

    I did mine last summer took all of an hour. It made a huge difference and in the video you can see how loose mine was.

    Screenshot_20230311_120741_Amazon Shopping.jpgthoughts on the tyger front bumper? One of my friends just picked one up for his tacoma and recommended it to me. Not sure if im convinced on the look but that price point is solid.

    @RelentlessFab also wanted to see if you were still doing CMCs

    If your gonna get Eric to do a CMC why not get a bumper from him? As someone who had his Predator on a 3rd gen 4Runner that was wheeled heavier then most for 5 years I can say that bumper held up to every rock that I bashed it off of. The winch mount is plenty strong for the 1000's of feet of pulls it was forced to do. In short I beat the living shit out of that bumper and it never bent, broke or failed. Plus, it looked damn good doing it.

    Boy howdy do I wish I could get a bumper from Eric. Slowing down on bigger mods for a while. Paying for my wedding here shortly so gotta prioritize that!

    Getting married is overrated. I vote for Eric's bumper instead.

    @Fosiconfiril, what is your need for the front bumper? How thick is the metal on that bumper you're looking at? How does it mount to the frame? Does it have a winch mount?

    Don't want this bumper as a permanent one just a placeholder. Non winch adaptable. Not sure how thick it is. Anyway I digress. If it was my bumper of choice it would definitely be their hybridScreenshot_20230311_142549_Chrome.jpg

    You don’t need a honeymoon. Tell the wife proper truck mods and you guys can go do some proper camping trips and not be worried. That’s the honeymoon
