CBI Rear Bumper Installed
Finally got a chance to install my CBI rear bumper this past weekend. I got the standard bumper, modified to fit my 2" body lift and with an exhaust cut-out on the right side. I think the tire carrier is a great option for some guys, but with all the extra weight and decreased visibility/access it just didn't make much sense for me to go that route with my 4runner since it is still my daily driver. Overall I'm beyond thrilled with the bumper, I think Steve did a great job and really adds in the small touches to make the bumper both good looking and very functional. For now I just rattle-canned it, planning to get it coated with Line-X sometime this winter to match the TJM up front. Also need to get my exhaust pipe re-routed to make use of the cutout on the bumper. Still a few more holes to drill and some other things to tweak when I get a chance, but here are the initial pics...

Wow I really like the look of that... I'm almost torn between that and the Perkins. On a side note - what length antenna is that on the back?

Looks awesome! I haven't seen pics of a CBI without a swing-away yet, very clean looking, almost looks like it could be factory!

the front bumper looks like an ARB....i got mine from trdparts4u :google: is your friend:D Edit: I was wrong, his bumper is a TJM-15, it was in his sig. Not sure if they are still available, shrockworks makes something similar |

bumper looks great man. Can we get a closer shot of the gap between the body and the bumper with the hatch up. I think you did good getting from those guys, they do phenomenal work. I wish they would update their website some. How much did you pay for it. I dunno where you're located so did you have it built and pick up local or do they make to order and ship them out. If price is decent and they ship I might be getting one of these bad boys before the year is over. |
I got mine to order and shipped from ID to CA. They ship through Fastenal (locations all over the US). Mine (with a tire carrier) was only $150 to ship which I thought was very reasonable.

I've yet to hear a quote on a CBI...

Damn tarheelrunner, that looks amazing. This is one of the last modifications I've want to make to my 4runner and this just makes me want to do it even more.
I have a couple questions. Did you get the bumper box thing? And also did you scrap you're dual exhuast that you'd been running for a while? |
looks outstanding=very clean look

The rear bumper is $599, adjustment for a 1" body lift is $50, 2" body lift is $100, and the exhaust cut out is $60. Not sure what the swing away tire carrier runs since I didn't go that route, I'm guessing around $400-$500 though. Steve is pretty backed up right now because he lost one of his main shop guys, so it took about 4 months to get the bumper after I initially order it.

looks good man!

That looks really nice. I can't tell from the pic and the website doesn't say anything but, does that have a hitch receiver built in?

Very nice clean bumper, clean lines that go with runner. Classy yet tuff.
