Bumpers interchangeable from 91-95?

There's a guy local to me who's selling a '95 with a nice set of 33s, and a nice aftermarket front and rear bumper... I'd like to offer him some $$$ and my stock bumpers to see if he wants to return to stock.

I'm pretty sure it should be a straight swap, but wanted to doublecheck with Yotatech

All 3rd gen pickup front bumpers are interchangeable. As well as 2nd gen runners.

89-95 2wd truck are the same (except Tacomas), don't interchange easily with 4wd due to subtle differences in the frame and body
89-95 4wd truck are the same (except Tacomas), don't interchange easily with 2wd due to sublte differences in the frame and body
90-95 4Runner are the same (some late 95/early 96 chassis could be exceptions), and should interchange with the 4wd trucks (except Tacomas)

That help?

Yes, thanks.

The front is a Warn, you can just see the logo in the first pic over by the left turn signal. The rear bumper just kind of looks homemade to me.

You're right Rattle, and there's some angular differences on the faces of it. Guess I shoulda looked at Warn's site before I started spouting off! Good catch.

It looks more like a SmittyBilt

My new WARN bumper just arrived yesterday! I installed the rear one almost 2 years ago and finally saved enough to get the front one. I haven't even taken it out of the box yet, but I know I'll be very happy. Now I just hope it doesn't take another 2 years to save for a winch.

I just installed a Warn bumper on my 4Runner yesterday. Yep it was a little pricey but just like you Lance o Lot, I had to save for it and now I'm glad I did.

That is not a warn bumper. I know because I have both of those bumpers.

The front is a TJM. Its missing the hoops, so its not the "fully loaded" model like the one I have. If you look at the nature of how the winch mounts, the 4 holes in the bottom, and the blinkers, you'll see the similarities



The rear is a TAG bumper ( formerly KMA ) This also comes with options. They fabricate swing outs, jerry can holders and a tire carrier.

It also looks like the guy in the black 4Runner welded the corners of the bumper on. They're initially supposed to be bolt on.
