Openroad 4WD 13K. (knew i would not need it often. seems to be the same as the zeke that project farm tested last year and it seemed to be ok for how i think i will ue it, was on sale before thanksgiving). the bumper has the 10X4.5" bolt pattern, so most anything will fit in there. i think if the control box has the power wires coming down at a 45 or 90 degree angle, moving it will not be necessary, but on the openroad it goes straight out the back. I got real lucky and just stumbled upon a youtube video that talked about rotating the spool release handle on a winch--so instead of having to open the hood to free spool, I rotated the handle and now its at the opening to the driver side of the RCI logo.

2 week turn-around? Good luck with that. I just called again today since tomorrow is 6 weeks and the guy that answered said it was just going to the welding bench. I really don't think that is unacceptable.

Great quality bumper, went with a superwinch sx12, and an extreme led 30". Everything went together well, its a PITA to get on the car. I built a stand for the jack to make it easier.

So I've already got a pair of BD LP6 lights coming back from a short stint in the Jeep world... is there enough room/offset on the top to drill a few holes for some round lights or would they interfere with the upper part of the grille?

here are some less than stellar pictures i took of the DD brackets made to work with the mounting tabs. the right angle drill attachement made all the difference

Install went pretty smooth, very straightforward.. Lots of room with the Warn VR 10s, I highly recommend this winch if you are worried about clearance with control box and power steering/AC lines.

I’ll be posting up an install video soon. I did the install at a friends shop in Vancouver WA (Offroad Toy Outfitters)

Installed the Pike with the Apex 12k yesterday afternoon. We had to remove the Treaty Oak recovery points for lower bracket install. Getting to the winch clutch through the bumper is a tight fit for sure but hopefully that won't be an everyday requirement. We got the medium high hoop and it looks awesome. Designed so the hoop and bumper sit back very tight to the nose cone and the fit is an awesome look.
Cali Raised lightbars will not fit in the factory tabs on this bumper.

First attempt at getting pics on here so don't laugh at me.
This bumper looks better than I thought it would. The fit and finish exceeds my expectations to be honest. Rci was responsive when I requested info. Packaging was impressive all around.

UPDATE: You can now install the RCI Pike Bumper with the TRD engine skid plate. We now offer a hardware kit that includes spacers and longer M10 hardware to allow the option of paring the TRD engine skid with our bumper!

RCI-when will the high clearance wings be available for the 4-runner?

I'd love one if they're available.

Thanks,
