Just curious: Front Bumper
Look at my front bumbper on my '99 4Runner, kind of in the middle left there is a part of the bumper that can be removed, maybe 6-8 inches wide and 3-4 inches in height.
What is the use of that spot on the bumper
Thanks

Yes, the removable piece of the chin is there so when you use the tow hook it doesn't crush the chin. Some 4runners didn't come with a tow hook. Some have thin loops to tie them down for transport. Some dealers remove the loops because they aren't strong enough to yank on if stuck. Some have the same tie down loops on the back. They are usually removed to bolt on a hitch.
