We have no plans to offer a dual swing. Yes it will be at Expo West.

Thanks! Yes we are working on a reverse camera relocation kit right now that will move the camera to the swing arm.

Any pre-orders or discounted group buys?
Aluminium or steel?
Assume the lead time is 6-8 weeks?

Thanks! We will most likely offer a pre-order, probably no group buy.
Bumper will be made from steel only. Lead time may be more than 6-8 weeks, we really cant tell right now.

It does follow the lines very nicely. As for exactly how much higher the clearance is, its really hard to measure that. The shape of the bumper around the bottom rear and corners pretty much follows the frame as tightly as possible. The factory bumper follows the frame pretty close as well, but ours is definitely higher than the original.

When is the dual swing out version coming?
I still do not know why single swing arms are being made. There are so many pros going with dual swing out vs a single.
With a dual swing out you can spread out the loads over two spindles, have more controlled opening, open easier in tight spaces, close easier.
Overall nice looking bumper and cannot wait to see the dual swing out version!
When will you guys be making a 2nd gen Tacoma high clearance rear bumper? You guys been making some amazing stuff lately. Keep up the good work!

We do not plan to offer a dual swing. There are many pros and cons to either single or dual and the argument can for either can go on and on. We decided we wanted to build it as a single swing.
Its unlikely that we will ever offer a 2nd gen Tacoma HC rear. We are mostly sticking to the newer generations as far as new products are concerned.
