Warn Semi Hidden winch bumper (New for 3rd gen Tacoma)

Can you post some photos of how close the Warn bumper sits to the OEM cover? Would you be concerned about flexing the truck that the Warn bumper would hit the OEM cover and scratch it?

Thanks for being our guinea pig though, it looks phenomenal.

 

Nice! Mine should be here shortly!

 

You're gonna love it! It looks so much better in real life than the pictures can show.

 

Dealer did it. I'll ask him but I think they must have installed winch prior to installing bumper

 

Here she is in front of S.S. Klondike in Whitehorse, Yukon CANADA an -32 degrees

 

It is pretty close. Too dark right now for a good pic but I'll post another couple tomorrow.

 

@Intrepid, quick question are you running the VR10 warn winch? I have a light bar mounted between the grille and bump right now and haven't pulled a trigger on the winch yet. I'd rather not have to move my bar unless it is absolutely necessary. Thanks man!

 

Yes I have the VR10 but my light bar sits on the winch mount.

 

That really does look good. I'll get mine this week and see what type of winches will be compatible. Thanks for the pics... I've been nervous about the fitment and quality.

 

Man the instructions make me nervous. Seems like you are taking allot off to get the winch in then putting it back on. Really hope it's easier than it looks.

 

You are gonna look be it. We've had a ton of stuff to do but I swear I could sit and stare at it for hours. The pictures don't make it look as good as real life. My 13 year old son thinks it is "lit"!

 

what brand did you go with for the 30" light bar?

 

Nightrider LED. I ordered all through the Toyota Dealership's list of possible suppliers. They offered this LED or Rigid and the Rigid was way too expensive. Everything shipped to the Arctic is at a premium so I can't brag about getting a good deal on anything.

 

wow awesome I am glad I saw this thread! thank you again. also can you mount custom fairleads? say a factor55?

 

How about those pics?

 

Looks good. Just a few questions. What are the wires on the drivers side of the warn hitch mount and it’s hard to tell from the pics but would the upper hoop block a CaliRaised lightbar behind the lower bumper grill?

 

Looks like the block heater plug location, not 100% tho. Us canadians have winter shit to deal with.

 

Bump for new fotos! Let's see more close-ups.

 

Looks nice and good price point, not digging the hoop though....

SSO includes 20” light bar built in. $888.

I do like everything about the Warn just the hoop is a no. No cutting is a big plus go going back to stock. Just seems like a lot of work to cut off the hoop and repowdercoat...

SOS $800

C4 probably my favourite at $710 with the extra bracing/mounting brackets and $800 with bull tube. This one is probably my favourite.

 

I would love the C4 (bare steel), but the price with shipping puts this at over 900. That is a 300 dollar difference. I agree the hoop is fairly high on this one and no lightbar cutout, but the price difference is very high.
