Unlike most brush guards and bumpers, ARB Bull Bars incorporate a fully engineered mounting system which completely replaces the factory bumper. ARBs Deluxe Bull Bar selection is the most extensive. Loaded with features aimed at making remote area travel safe, no other bumper offers the same degree of vehicle integration, protection or functionality.
I’ve wanted one since I was a kid. This thing is amazing
Install was not to bad for someone with average mechanical abilities.
Great bumper! Like the looks and function. Be prepared to sort through pounds of unmarked hardware. Recommend getting a metric tread checker. Also if you run a winch with synthetic cable you’ll need to plan on a spacer kit from ARB that will add an additional $100 to the project.
Its the best bumper for the Tacoma period, full stop quit looking at other bumpers this one has all the features you need and nothing else. Gave it 4 out of 5 stars because even though the packaging was excellent it did come with scratches in the paint not big deal but worth noting.
Very pleased with the look and function of this bumper. I would give 5 stars for the product but it was received with some premature dings and dents that I acquired and did not earn through the trails just yet. Another note, a wider gap at the fender flare to bumper area is critical. I choose the smaller end of the spectrum and I have rubbing. You only get one shot after drilling the additional holes, unless of course, you drill even more holes. Either way very satisfied with my choice in front bumper style and I highly recommend it to others.
Q: 2012 TRD sport with factory fog lights. What else do I need with this bumper that is not included to have it fully functional with all lights? Answer this question
A: My bumper did not come with the fog lights it had inserts that you could take out when you got some to put in it so it looked finished and not a big empty hole. I did not need anything else other then what came with my bumper except a few wiring connectors to wire up the lights that it came with.

Q: 2014 Tacoma extra cab. 4 w drive. 176 # bumper. Would I need to beef up the suspension? Answer this question
A: I don’t think you should have to. That being said I did lift my 2012 the same time my arb bumper went on. Shouldn’t need to though.
