Today was all about fitting the bumper, winch, lights and sliders. Two out of four ain't so bad I guess.
Managed to mock up and paint the sliders but with so much to do on the bumper the sliders are being put on next week. They are a DOM product with kickouts in the rear. Little heavier than the HREW but as you might imagine stouter.
The back of the ComeUp Winch is flat making the mounting much simpler than with other models of winch. It went onto the bumper without issue.
The AllPro Apex bumper is made for a Tacoma which shares similar features with the 4Runner however it does require some cutting and modification to make it work.
We spent more time than we imagined we would and still will have to wire up lighting but progress is progress.
For the rear I'll be mounting this after getting it powder coated to also match the cladding. Unlike the front bumper this is made to encompass the 2" body lift so there will be no gap. I'll also have some other modifications to it for camp lighting.
Safety fast!
Today couldn't have been accomplished without the help of some local Atlanta 4Runner members Eric and Brian
When we finally did finish we headed to the monthly Atlanta 4Runner meet. The group has definitely grown over the past couple of years. 4Runners, Tacomas, FJ Cruisers, etc. Always a good exchange of people who love their Toyotas.
The gap...getting it addressed too
The end product when I finally got it back home. Hoping to have it cleaned up next weekend. Cheers!
