Hey guys, I have a few questions surrounding the bumper on my 2000 4runner.
I have had the truck for about 4 months now. After some research turns out the aftermarket front bumper is actually for a newer Tacoma (
SAHARA BUMPER ARB SAHARA BUMPER I believe) and I think it looks great.
Fitment is good and the previous owner painted the chrome top bar with rocker-guard/bed liner and that is exactly what I would have done as well.
I had a turn signal burn out and when I went to replace it seems the 10mm nuts are seized and the bolt is turning with the nut due to some corrosion. ( the light assembly needs to be replaced I guess? Does anyone know where to order one? I am in Canada)
I am wondering if it is worth it to remove the whole bumper, sandblast, and powder coat? I really like the look and want to keep it but hoping the rust isn't too bad and have to break something to replace the lamps.
On the outside, there are tiny patches of very light surface rust starting but mostly it is just the inside. Not really sure how to remove the light assembly though if it is seized... Maybe something I missed? Thanks!
