Would like to see what is available as a replacement for Tacomas.

Already know about Bentup.com and Anthony Padgett...

Any other offerings out there?

I don't know that I would trust the latter considering the fiasco(s) posted about on T.T.O.R.A. but here is another also on T.T.O.R.A. all the time.

There's Overkill on the Illinois board (I think this might be the Anthony Padgett mentioned above, but may be wrong) and www.terra-guard.com. I think DeMello and Bentup are the favorites.

That link is no good.

It's Terra Guard Fabrications.

The link doesn't work for me either, but that's the web address. Try this one.

http://www.terra-guard.com/

If that doesn't work, just type it on your address bar.

There was a period after .com (.com./) That's why it wasn't working. :pat:

i think anthony makes one of the best bumpers ive seen on a tacoma. it takes him a while to make the bumpers which had one postal worker disgruntled, i thought he might just go postal. to bad he waited for the bumper to be done to make a huge issue out of it, and then he never bothered to follow up with the resolution. (anthony couldnt even ship it to him because he filed a fraud claim, the postal guy was proud of his postal money order and the power it gave him, he was talking federal offense...)

anyways, that was my favorite but now i like the DO tube style.
i like these too: http://www.badlandbumpers.com/index_files/page0002.htm

I do that all the time........



I would like the bentup bumper and with the wrap-around tubing like the badland bumpers. I just don't like the tube bumpers, but that's just my personal preference.

Thanks for recommendation. As for my difficulty with Mr Padgett and his failure to provide the product paid for in a timely manner. That is a settled issue with the refund of my money under threat of prosecution from the USPS.

I consider the matter closed.

This is a truly interesting offering since he is located only 35 miles from me. Should be able to work with him face to face. The very best way of all.

Thanks much for this!

Hello, Just going through some old, very old posts, and I see that I have apparently slipped up with a few people. Now, this is 2011, and I run a Fabrication business fulltime, not on the side like I did before. Anyways, I am sorry about the past, but rest assured, I don't operate like that anymore. I am actuall offering lifetime warrenties and 2-3 week leadtimes.
