Addicted Offroad's new 5th gen 4runner bumper!

[MENTION=106176]wfo9[/MENTION] did you get yours installed already then?

It so, how much droop...if any...did you get.
Not installed yet, I just started pulling stuff off tonight. Should have it on as a test fit in the next few days. Install looks pretty easy, but hard to pull off solo as it is an odd shape to balance on anything....
 
Install mostly done. It looks beastly on the truck Click here to see more pics.

Still need to trim the bumper cover trim pieces and then get the bumper powder coated.

Decided not to run a winch for now, so will have the lightbar filling that space. Will weld some additional tabs on for it.

Looks like the winch can be easily put on without removing the bumper (huge bonus). The grill and one support will need to come off though, but super easy.

Fit is nice.
Install was easy (actually did it myself with no extra hands)
Clearance is amazing. 35" on the corners. Should be able to get a tire up on crazy stuff. Way more than the rest of the truck can deal with.

Requires a little bit of cutting... (shown in the pics)

Will do a full write up on the install once completely done.

Very pleased at this point.

Oh yea, Front end dropped 1/4". Hardly noticeable but have not driven it yet.

That looks pretty rad. I might have considered this had it been out before I got my Demello.

Thanks for taking all those photos, love to see more as it progresses. When you install after painting can you include a couple in the area where the winch would mount, specifically just below upper grill? Are you powder coating to match the truck (saw the different color squares)?
 
Got some action shots with the new bumper. Clearance is nuts!

Would also be interested in a 14+ version. In Colorado as well if you need a test rig.



14+ models have the same mounting pattern, but the grill sits a solid 2" further forward. So, we are going to modify a couple things on those models and they will be in production soon.

Looks great on there!
 
Here it is completed... Powder coating it this week.

Ended up fabricating a bracket for the light bar that bolted to the tabs that were already there.

Still trying to decide on black or a steel gray... for the powder coating.

Looks great at this angle! I'm actually diggin it in its raw state. The details comes out.
 
I 2nd the steel Grey as well. Hopefully you got it to the powder coater's before all of this rain I would hate to see all that nice work rust!
 
I went with the steel gray type color for the main part of the bumper. Black for the cross member since that area could see more scrapes (easier to touch up).

Should have it back in about 1 week.
 
OK, so the 2014 is most definitely the same mounting pattern. However, the grill hangs out an additional 2" further forward compared to the 2010-2013 models. So, it will require a different mounting system to push the winch plate forward and a minor redesign on the wings. Its not a huge issue, but enough of one to need a different wing. We're making the adjustments to it right now and will have one mounted up later today to get some pics of.

Anyway, I will update everyone when the 14+ models are full into production. But it should only be a couple weeks out.
