Coast Offroad Bumper Question

[Nickname]

Hey, I'm getting a Coastal Offroad front bumper for my 06 4Runner. I'm curious how a winch mounts in the bumper given the location of the high pressure AC line. Anyone have a coastal bumper and a winch that has some pictures? Does the winch mount lower than the AC line or upside down? Or am I overthinking the whole thing? Thanks!

Not really sure on the Coastal Offroad bumper but have read on some of the bumpers the AC line has to be relocated to mount a wench.

Good to know. Is there a relocation kit that you are aware of? Or do you have a thread you read about it you could link?

I don't remember what topic/s I read that in or which brand bumper is was, I would contact Coastal OffRoad and see what they say.

Ya, I'm having a hard time getting a hold of them. Tried email, instagram, and their online question form. Most of the people with winches on their pictures have V8s. Wondering if that is just coincidence or if the bumper doesn't work with a winch on a V6.

It will work, just bend the hard line a bit for clearance. I don't have a winch yet but I'll take a photo of the available space in a minute.

The line is close, but depending on which winch you get it should fit, I think coastal recommends an 8k winch but I could be mistaken. The photo is looking straight down on to the winch plate.

Bend it out of the way. All aftermarket bumpers run into this issue. The line is very soft and pliable.
