Trail Gear Taco Bumper?

[dlxrobinson]

I know there are some guys running this on their 3rd gen T4Rs and I know that the general consensus is that too much work is required to make these work on our 4Runners. Can somebody show pictures or give some explanation of what modifications are ACTUALLY necessary to make this work?

Cheers

Sub'd. This has been one of my favorite bumpers I'd love to know what is needed to install.

Go ahead and post the pictures in this thread if you dont mind! I know there have been a few threads across the Toyota forums about this and there haven't ever been any pictures. Do it for the children

There are end caps welded in 3 half inch spots attached to the frame. Cut those off.

For me. But not for others. A notch needs to be cut out of the bracket to clear the ac line.

That's it.

Looks pretty simple to me. Gonna have to get under my front end and see what it looks like before any cutting.
If you don't mind me asking, why'd you have to cut the block out for the AC line?

Like everyone else was saying. Cut the frame caps off and it slides over the end of frame. Then bolts straight up.

the cross member could not slide on enough to the bolt holes, it was contacting the ac line, so i cut it out. slid right on and bolted up. Ive used my winch a couple times and pulled some things no problems.

Your truck is actually what made me decide that I want to go this route. Nice build, man.
