Could you give a rough estimate on cost for materials? I was planning on ordering a coastal off-road kit but your bumpers lol great and i think I will get a sense of pride from cutting it all myself, just curious on the price difference. If you could give a round estimate for front and rear that would be great, thanks in advance!

Front bumper w/ hitch receiver!

[QUOTE=Bandit Runner;52246822]I am selling custom front and rear bumper plans based on the bumpers I built for my third gen 4Runner. The front bumper mounts and winch plate are 1/4” thick steel. The front bumper mounts directly to the 4Runner frame, using a total of 14 bolts. The frame rail ends will need to be cut off, similar to mounting an ARB bumper. These bumpers are designed to fit all standard (non integrated solenoid) 8-10K winches. I will provide you with all necessary information in order to build your own bumper. This includes:
- Detailed component and assembly drawings
- CAD files
- Materials list
- Step by step build instructions with pictures

Your front bumper design can be customized in the following ways at no extra cost:
- Body lift height (Eliminate that ugly gap between the bumper and body)
- Flare width (Match your bumper width to your flares)
- Hoop Design (Standard, PreRunner, Center only, none, etc)
- Material Thickness (Keep it light, or go heavy duty)
- Fog/driving light openings (round PIAA, square Rigid Dually, none, etc)
- Turn signal openings (round, oblong, none, etc)

Front bumper pics:

Hey. Bumpers look awesome!! Really hard for find anything like this for our 4runners or as they are known in New Zealand the mighty Hilux Surf, the 3rd gen is known as a KZN185.

Be interested to talk about getting my hands on a set of plans to make a rear bumper and possibly dual swing arm

Front bumper pics:

I am also selling the rear bumper design, as many of my customers have been asking for this for quite a while. The rear bumper also uses 1/4” thick mounting features, and uses 8 bolts in which to mount it. It also has an integrated 2” receiver. Customization for body lifts and flare widths are also included.

Rear bumper pics:
Attachment 210905
Attachment 210906

I also have several swing-out tire carrier options for the rear bumper. I have both single swing-arm designs and dual swing-arm designs. Options include ladder, 5-gallon jerry cans, Rotopax cans, Hi-Lift jack mounts, or custom items.
Single swing-arm pics:
Attachment 210907
Attachment 210908
Attachment 210909

Dual swing-arm pics:
Attachment 210910
Attachment 210911
Attachment 210912

The prices are as follows:
Front bumper design = $125
Rear bumper design (No swing-arm) = $125
Single swing-arm for rear bumper = add $35
Dual swing-arm for rear bumper = add $50
If you purchase a front and rear bumper at the same time, I will knock $50 off the total cost.
If you purchased a bumper design from me previously, and would now like to purchase a second design, I will knock off $25.

Take all the guess work out of building your own bumper. Just cut out the parts and weld them together according to the instructions. To make it even more simple, you can even have a shop cut the parts out for you on a waterjet, from the CAD files supplied.

These 3rd gen 4runner bumpers are both stylish and functional. I have sold many of these designs over the past several years, and have never had any complaints. I spend a good deal of time on each design to ensure that the customer is completely satisfied.

Please PM me if you are interested (include your email address), and I will send you some more information.

Thanks,
Bandit Runner
