Building a CUSTOM Rear Bumper from Scratch on a 3rd Gen 4Runner - Clapped out 4Runner Series
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
We dinged up the rear a bit on the Hollister trip so I knew a rear bumper was in order. I didn't realize HOW necessary it really was!! I also build a skid plate for the front to protect the radiator.

Nice trick with the bolt, drill and Belt Sander
Just found your channel a couple months ago. I’ve been finally getting caught up on your old videos. You an carter are the ultimate duo. Your fab is so simple and effective. I have a jeepster that needs a set of bumpers and sliders…….wink wink
Nice fab and weld work looks pretty good ahh the dents will buff out
I use that same pointed screw trick... it's a life saver for alignment. Great video!

Nope. This is it’s final IFS form. I’ll tinker with gadgets like inverter and batteries and lighting for a while and build out the inside, but it’s getting tons and 40/42s next
That shit with the all thread was Fuckin slick bro!
Maybe some more tube gussets to limit the flexing into the body? Gotta be a way to make the bumper more rigid.. other than that the build looks great.
