Austin, you should start a fab shop for early gen Toyota Tacomas and 4Runners. Film it while doing what you love. Awesome work man!

It would take up all his time he’d have to hire people and wouldn’t be able to make KZfaq videos. A guy on Tacomaworld did that a couple years ago couldn’t keep up, took a bunch of peoples money and disappeared. I’d hate to see that happen to Austin.

Dude, I love how you fabricate something then put the video out. So many people on KZfaq would milk this for a 7 part series on how to make a bumper with a ridiculous amount of them talking things over and over. Keep up the excellent content Austin!

Huge Inspiration ! As you have surely experienced, I've done a lot of searching for the perfect bumper on my off-road build. Lots of frustration as I've found design ideas I like, but fitment to my ride isn't available, or some detail just isn't right. This has been particularly true with the placement and fitment of the winch and lights I want. Your video has given me the confidence to build my own. Looking forward to the satisfaction and cost savings of DIY. Thanks and Well Done !

I salute your method and talent. Cardboard is outstanding. I save Wide Screen TV, Refrigerator, Matress, and other boxes just for this work. One tip, cut through one side of the cardboard for places that need to bend. Keeps the bend straight and the bend won't fight you.

Nice job, looks great. Love the look as is. Are you worried about a rock or road debris coming up through the vent openings in the skid plate? I would feel better with a perforated plate or vented plate there to keep foreign objects from going into the lower radiator.

Wow, that bumper looks great! Can't wait to see the rear! You are going to end up liking the Tacoma so much that "Ole Red" is going to end up sitting in the shop. Great job Austin as always and enjoy the videos of your builds! How much extra weight did the bumper put on the front end, did it compress the springs more?
@austinniemela 2 жыл бұрын
Thanks! The bumper is just over 100 lbs so not too bad! With the winch it dropped the front end 1/2”. I am swapping to a synthetic rope as well

@rickyschultz6357 2 жыл бұрын
Looks good as usual, but I think you might have problems if you are planning to use that steel winch cable through the aluminum hawse fairlead. I believe you might need to change the fair lead out for a steel version or get rollers if you don’t plan on changing the cable over to synthetic. Just something to think about.
