    All of this is true except that there is some plastic cutting involved.

    I figured there would be at least some but not like some of the others I’ve seen where you’re cutting up to three holes.

    What’s the weight on this without bull bar for 2nd gen.

    I went to price out various options and I noticed there is some kind of front parking sensor kit option. I searched for any real info both on the SSO site and here, but could not find anything. Anybody got a link or could SSO staff tell us what kit it is, how its installed, etc.? Thanks!

    This is the exact winch bumper I've been looking for and want to buy. Somewhere on TacomaWorld it said for 2nd Gen's, but I don't see the option for 2010's. Please tell me it's available!

    Is the Front Zone Parking sensor system with pre cut mounting holes required for the 2018's with the parking sensor in the grill? Also, will it work with a 30" SR8 flush mounted in the bumper?

    While its not absolutely necessary, a spring upgrade is recommend to carry the addtional weight of the bumper and winch.

    The parking sensor system is a complete kit separate from anything Toyota does. It is made by Rostra Precision and comes with the sensors, an led readout with audible alerts. We made a version of our bumper that would have the holes for the sensors pre cut so installation would be painless. It is not required to purchase the front zone parking system for your current Toyota sensors to work as they should. This is just an add on kit that gives you parking sensors in the Slimline Hybrid. Unfortunately, because of lack of space on the bumper it is only available in the 20" light bar options.

    Sorry 2012 and up for right now.


    Sorry, we dont have any other sales slated for the remainder of the quarter. Perhaps near the end of the year though.

    Wow! So after much deliberation with myself I opted with the 30 inch BD light bar, winch hole only, powdercoated, bull bar, and premium wiring harness!!

    I kept bouncing back and forth between the 20 inch or the 30 inch, ugh so hard to decide!

    What helped you other guys decide on light bar?

    P.S. Thanks to the response from SSO team on here and Morgan who took my order over the phone.

    You won’t ever find an opportunity for 20% off a BD light...that is why I went 30”.

    Thanks man, I'm still unsure lol, felt like the 30 looks almost too long, literally stared at pics for hours...but I was running out of time.

    Almost as many decisions as selecting suspension components!

    I struggled with:
    1. Whether to add a light bar (I did)
    2. What size (went 20" since I have the BD designs fogs). No need to blind the insects.
    3. What color light bar (went amber since it can be changed later and I like amber in fog so others can see ME)
    4. Whether to provide for winch (I did)
    5. Whether to buy the winch now (did not)
    6. Whether to add winch access (did)
    7. Whether to add winch access holes (did)
    I needed sliders first, but someone said 'sale' so here I am. And I missed Mobtown's last sale and vowed not to do that again.

    I've been looking at these a long time. Really since they came out. After I add the winch, and possibly the second battery/compressor I'll need to re-think the suspension. Especially since I tow a travel trailer 5-6 times in the spring and again in the fall. Luckily short distances.

    I have most definitely pulled the string.......one thing leads to another!
