Rear bumper has been great, haven't used the sliders yet.
But front bumper is the next target. I've tweaked it pretty well a couple of times, and just kicked it back in place. The driver's side has a nice crack in it now.

Reason: added newer pic of the tweaked front bumper
Finally got it tuned to not run so rich and produce some decent power (for a 3.0 with 4 hole injectors, long tubes & a true CAI). Next is gonna be a 3rd gen TRD hood scoop.
And eventually a tube rear bumper!

Nothing terribly interesting happening on the truck, but I did bring it out to our new house where I actually have some garage space. So hopefully I'll be able to make some progress over the winter.
Small tires required to get it into the garage...

Replaced my rear springs with some stock height Moog CC255s to get rid of the 2nd gen saggy butt. Original springs had 250k miles on them so I think it was time.
This was after the install but also loaded up for our annual Halloween camping trip.
My Taco she's not pretty but runs great!!! 1996 Toyota Tacoma 4x4 !!
This is my Taco just put new springs on rear new bearings and new hubs an spindles on front new breaks all around. She needs new paint job an to reupholster the seat.

Reason: Didn't put model and year
A few different modifications being attacked at one time here. I installed BJ spacers, Refinished the Bed, Filled holes in the rear of the cab and painted it, and then Boxed in the rear of the frame.
Got my R150F back from Marlin Crawler and ready to bolt up to the 4.7:1 geared transfer case that is sitting on top of a brand new marlin clutch. Auto to manual swap is go.
Hoping for some Christmas goodies for my truck this year! (perhaps a touch up on the paint? Some new seats? A lid or toppers of some sort? Or maybe some KCs for the cab? Husband is excited at the possibilities for Christmas gifts for me!) Right now I think I would be happy with a new rear bumper! LOL
A run-in with a large buck last year forced me to fix a crack in the frame before it became worse, and the radiator shop I had fix mine after that messed up and it again wiggled loose of the sides recently. Might as well mix up my ruf's and swap in the f150 rears while I'm in there
Retro "Tube-style" bumper made out of 1/4" wall Oil Well Drill stem pipe. 1/2" winch plate for Warn M8000, recessed LED blinkers, and Piaa Fog and Ralley lights.
Had to use a come-a-long to bend the pipe once all the scalloped cuts were made
Winch plate / mounting design - mounts to the front Body mounts and the lower dual holes where the original hooks were
about as tight as I could get the winch to the body....tucks in right under the grille
Welded up and capped the ends
Primed, coated in bedliner, and ready to install
Installed on the front of a 1st Gen '86 4Runner in full bedliner
