    I just bought a nice 95 Tacoma ext and want to start sprucing it up. I had an 84 with smittybilt tube bumpers. Any ideas where I can find something similar. I'm doing the front and rear bumpers.

    ^I don't know about smittybuilt, but I do know that Addicted Offroad, All Pro, 4x Innovations, and others offer some nice tube bumpers. I'm kind of partial to the new Addicted Offroad hybrid bumper that BDN has...

    Smittybilt is all made oversees with thin wall tubing in order to bring the price down. Their products look great but I wouldnt rely on them for protection. If you want a bumper that can actually handle abuse then buy one listed above ^^
