anyone know of a good place to get a custom rear bumper? and what kinds are out there?

 

What kind of rear bumper are you looking for. There are many different types, tube bumpers, solid bumpers which fit flush with the tailgate, bumpers w/ built in hitch receivers. Check www.performanceproducts.com, there is a vendor link for it own this site, I like them because I bought my seat covers, lift kit, and fender flares from them, and the pricing was pretty good, and the shipping times were reasonable. There are many other companies that sell custom bumpers, and you can probably find one in the vendor links section. Before you get stuck on one style, consider what is more important, looks or function, and also consider what function it will serve. Good luck, any other questions, just write back again. If you find something you like and buy it, post of pic of it when it is installed. Happy shopping.

 

im looking at the allpro offroad rear bumper. anyone know if this is a good one? i think i remember hearing good things from this company. anyone have any experience with them?

 

Perhaps you will have better luck, but amongst the TTORA crowd, we tend to stay away from that company. Extemely poor customer service tops the list of complaints. Shop around a bit, have one custom made, just make sure that you know what you are getting in advance.

 

Doink, if you like the All Pro style, also check out the guy who made my sliderz.

Same design, but he says it's a little beefier.

I have close-ups of the same unit on his wife's new Tacoma.

Also that front bumper on his wife's rig will also fit older rigs like ours.

Can't get that one built by the same guy he did, but when I do get my rear one made up some day, I'll have Jeff at Badland's fab something like it.
