Rear Bumper (1 Viewer)

X3 on the Metal Tech!
Plus the steel guards protecting the quarter panels are a great place to mount a bottle opener.

Woody, did you have to cut the frame as well for you 4x4 labs bumper? Do they offer a kit yet or do you have to buy all of the components seperately? Thanks

From my understanding, yes, you lose the rear cross-member...

Looking at the Metal Tech for my truck. I like the look of the rear quarter panel protection.

Thanks for the reply, I was hoping an option where the crossmember remained would be available.

Talk to Luke, I'm sure he could do a custom that keeps the x-member, but he'll need your rig for a while.

Frame cut = yes

Kit? I suppose you can do that, per his website. He's only done 2 so far, and I think he's still at the point where there is some fit work to the vehicle. It's not quite at the same point his 80 series bumpers are.

But I tell you -- this is one stout bumper. Not sure how much it weighs, but it has very little flex. You can lift the rear by the swingout arm.

He just finished up one for my 4runner
