This is my minimalist rear bumper. It bolts on where the receiver hitch mounts are for the heavier duty receiver hitch (like the GX460 has). The biggest benefit of this design is that it bolts on - in about 10 minutes. The plates help slide on rocks as you drop off of them. And it protects the exhaust pipe. The basic weld on tube design has higher clearance, but doesn't do much to protect that exhaust tip where you'll drag it if you were using it in the rocks.



Where did you get this jetboy?

I made that. It was basically what I came up with out of some leftover tube from my rock sliders and a few other pieces of material I had laying around from other projects. It worked pretty well for being a minimalist rear protection. I'm sure any fab shop could probably build one for you.

I don't have a 4Runner anymore, but I kicked around the idea of making a few dozen of them to see if there was a market for something like that. I've thought a bit about how to fabricate it so it could break down into 3 pieces to fit in a smaller shipping box. Just never pursued it.
