Southern Style slimline front bumper on 2020 (with TSS)? - Toyota 4Runner Forum

TexasEagle · 12-01-2019, 10:39 PM

I'm waiting for a response back from Southern Style Offroad directly, but I thought I'd go ahead and ask the community. Does anyone know if the SSO slimline front bumper will fit on the 2020 while preserving the TSS sensors / system? My preference would be this bumper with the bull bar. I'm expecting the answer to be that the bumper will work, but not with the bull bar, but I'm hoping that it can be made to work.

Additionally, my understanding is that most folks put a 10K winch on their 4Runners. Will a 12K winch have any issues fitting with this bumper?

You'll have to go without the bull bar in order for the bumper to be compatible with TSS.

I've heard of other vendors offering compatible bull bars, but they'll have to be very short.

A 12K might not fit honestly. The 10K X20 winch I installed in their bumper on the 4Runner was fine, but there's a hard line to what i think is the AC running up in there. It's kinda tight even with the 10K. If the 12K is dimensionally the same as the 10K, you might be fine. Also, consider a remote solenoid, might give you options.

I also suspect the 2020 w/ TSS will work without the bull bar...it's what I'm looking to do when mine comes in.

Looks like they can make it work! Here's the response I received from them this morning:

"We have changed our hoop's height to accommodate the TSS sensor. When ordering just make sure that you note you have a 2020. "

Now i just have to decide on a winch and whether to do the high-clearance kit.
