The Warn bumper *PICS*

Oh, by the way, anyone with same year truck, I need your front turn signals, the 4runner signals are too large for the Warn bumper

And some flexing Stock suspension, IFS, 31x10.5's

OME lift kit coming in the mail, and a warn M8000 to fill that bumper. Probably going to pick up a front locker too.

looks great how much fabrication do you think would be needed to adapt that to a runner with a 3 inch body lift?

the front bumper? Should be absolutely none. It bolts right to the frame rails.

that is an awesome bumper but its really unfair how Warn makes the same bumper cost outrageously higher for a toyota than a jeep. im looking at the prices for an 89 - 95 pickup; the front bumper is $649 plus $139 for a "grille guard tube" and the back bumper is $679. on a jeep wrangler the front bumper is $240 and the rear is $310. it just seems gay to me what do yall think?

Economy of scale - everything Jeep is cheaper since they sell so many more of them! I understand a Cherokee bumper will fit, but you'll have to fab mounts...

yea but the cherokee bumpers are barely any cheaper than the yotas. i guess its like what you were saying though, because there are a lot more wranglers than cherokees

Nice bumper, but IMO it sticks out too far...approach angle suffers.

That is what I thought to, glad I have a TJM.

The cut-out for intigrated winches is cool though.

Isn't this bumper going away? I called Warn the other day and they said they currently are discontinuing bumpers and winch mounts for our model 4runners.

truck customizers has this bumper for like $549 + shipping..


And yes, this bumper is being discontinued. The thing is BEEFY. I had to basically bench press the damn thing while my friend bolted it on....and man my arms are sore now ! haha!

It's not that my approach angle suffered from the bumper as much as the extra weight weighing the front down.

the OME lift system I have coming should definitely take care of that though.

How about resizing those gigantic pics? 800x600 is perfect.

After looking at your pics again, I would say its the approach angle, I think it was better stock... I cant beleive warn calls that a rockcrawler bumper, you dont even have the fairlead on yet. Its massive. You can adjust for the weight with a turn or two on the tbars, no big deal, and your only talking 100 pounds... really not that much.

As far as turn signals, its the same thing with the ARB, I just bought some clear ones cheap off of ebay... the bulb plugs are different, so it will require pigtails from a junyard off a truck to.

yeah....the winch will be fine. I've got an OME lift kit on the way that will definitely remedy and then some the approach angle I lost. And if that doesn't work I'll throw on a body lift too haha.

How would a body lift remdy the approach angle? You would be out more$$ making custom brackets to lift the bumper, as on a body lift it wouldnt move...

OME lift?? You mean tbars?
