Taco armor in Canada

I'm here to see some pictures

 

Shhhhh, no it's free

 

Waiting for the homer grill was bad enough*still havent got it* this is gonna be a longggggg month lol the camera relocation is going to be a cool feature..

 

Thanks for the welcomes guys. I'm hoping to make some progress this week and get some photos up for you all to check out, but its going to be a busy one so I'll do my best.

Installing the first set of Taco sliders next Saturday.

 

If I like the looks and the total weight of the bumper I would be interested. Only on a front bumper. Been on this forum for a year and don't even know what a slider is......

Oh, wait. Did a search. It is a small hamburger! Maybe I will take two.

 

It appears someone was lurking around the shop this afternoon and snapped this spy shot.

More to come...

I would be interested in f/r bumpers

 

Any chance it will incorporate a receiver hitch?? So I can ditch the factory hitch to improve my departure angle.

Thanks

 

It will dont worry.

Here's a few shots for you to check out. There will be a receiver built in, which will be behind the licence plate (it will be hinged from the top). Recovery points will be doubled up to 3/4" thick, and pass through the bumper to form the main frame attachment. The swingout is on a VERY beefy 1 3/8" spindle, and in this build will have a spare, 2 jerry cans in a locking rack, and a place for the Hi-Lift. There are other details as the owner mentioned in a previous post. Its still in the early stages, but I'll update as it comes together.

Pricing is dependent on the build, but I am competitive with the other major builders, and the big benefit for Canadians is there is no hassle and extra fees etc. with the border. I'm also down with group buys to combine shipping and reduce that cost if there are a few people interested in the same general area.

For anyone interested, I am a ticketed welder, and prior to starting Cruisin Off Road full time in 2010, I spent over 10 years in the industry building semi-traliers and working on concrete pumps. The designer in me likes doing this a lot better!

On with the pics!
