Well shoot, I have been planning out a tube bumper for a while but I think i like the sqare style again. Arg..... It looks real good. Allright thats it, now I am going to build that style bumper with sqare sliders. Done.
Oh yeah go with the combo sidemarker/turn signal as done here http://www.4x4wire.com/toyota/tech/tacoma_turn_signal/ I did it to my 85

Looks really nice, Mike!
Get a winch in there, man. It really is a great thing to have. Especially since I know youre getting more extreme!
Good to see you can fab up something that looks good!

phorunninduke, thanks for the link. i was just about to start looking for the info on that...
Praufet, no winch yet. unless you want to buy me one... i'd be glad to run one in that case.

Dude, that looks sick! Very nice work. I am super impressed. I don't know if you remember me, I talked to you about my 4runner and I remember that you go to Cal Poly. I just got into Cal Poly and I am planning on going there so I was wondering whats the deal with the 4wd club? Any info you have would be great. Are you going to be going to Cal Poly next year? Thanks.

SAS is almost done. still need to tie up some loose ends on it... as for the bumper, i think it's done. except for some tow points, of course. i was going to do a tire carrier, but at this point i'm probably not going to. if i feel ambitious enough in the future, who knows though...

Thanks for the welcome! I'm not from ttora. You may have seen me on Pirate4x4, Marlin BB, or Off Road Fab net.
My first post will make more sense once 4RunnerKid is finished with his latest additions to the front bumper. I would post a picture, but I think he's saving that until it's finished.
