hahah i like 4runners, so if people are up for talking 4runners so am i :)
 
Lee, definitely post up once you get the locker installed. It was also pretty interesting that the install didn't require taking the 3rd apart. At least this is what I read.
 
Well, I would like to see the Bruce TS bumper come in a kit. Trying to replicate it can be done, but it wouldn't be exact.

What do you think someone might charge to build a bumper like that?

Question:

Lee, I currently have factory fog lights located on my T4R bumper. I was wondering what might work better when I get my TJM bumper installed. First option is to have 2 holes cut in the bumper, one on the left and one on the right and install my existing fogs into them. Or second, install two 8" Round lights in the center of the bumper, similar to yours, and utilize the factory "ON/OFF" switch on the column for the fogs to turn on/off the new Round KCs. What do you think? I guess my question is, will either option work?

i wouldnt cut into the bumper simply because if youre gonna wheel with the tjm, youll probably smash those lights eventually then youll just have 2 holes down low.

as long as you get 55w fogs, you can tap into the factory wiring and youll be all set using the factory switch too. if you get 100w driving lamps, youll need to upgrade everything.
 
wait a second, lee... you need to find out what the deal is with those bumpers, i might not be a member of ne4roc, but hey... i got booze and a really big grill
 
:D didnt mean to set off a riot! hahah.

i have no clue what it will take to get the bumper.. this guy is just great at fabbing his own stuff. heck he made a front and rear bumper for his taco in a weekend each and they both look AWESOME and are really strong.

hes gonna put my locker in w/me and at that time we'll remove my rear bumper and take some measurements and get some ideas goin :)
 
So I am pretty new to this forum but I do know that those are some sick rear bumpers!!! I have a few questions. Does anyone make a rear bumper that is similar that is "mass produced"? What is the likely hood of an average joe like me getting my hands on one of those "Bruce ts bumpers"? Thanks for all the help guys.

Well I don't know about a "mass produced" or similar bumper currently available for the 3rd Gen T4Rs that look like the Bruce TS Bumper, but if you want something similar to it or similar to Darren's bumper, (pictured on the 1st pg of this thread) you're at least in the same state as the place where Darren got his built at. The company is called Rock Ware located in Blanca, Colorado.

Check them out at:http://rockware.net/

I can tell you, you're probably going to be looking at spending close to $1,000.00 (w/o the rear tire carrier) if you have them build you one though.

For more pics of Darren's bumper, check out his pics at:
