    It mounts to the frame so it should work. It will look goofy though.

    you'll have serious gap between the grill/fenders and the bumper with a 3" body lift, but it will bolt up just fine.

    I have that bumper with a 1" body lift and it actually doesn't look bad.

    I have a 96 Tacoma with a 4"body lift on it. I'm thinking of getting this same bumper. Do you have any pics of what it looks like installed? Thinking I could throw a light bar up to hide the gap..I dunno.
