    It's been 5 years since I installed one of these on my Frontier. The aluminum units are expensive, but after weighing all the original pieces that are removed, it's essentially the same weight. So I've only gained the winch weight. I finally installed some Baja Squadron fog lights last year. Had to fabricate some brackets, but it looks great.

    I have one of these (purchased in 2021) and will install in a few days. 1. I don't see how you can get your winch controller plugged into the control box and 2. I didn't see how you relocated the temperature sensor you removed.

    • @heftyfabworks

      Access to the winch control box is from the top of the grill near the hood latch. The temp sensor is just zip tied back out of the way.

      I did the install. This video helped tremendously. The only issue I had was when clocking the winch, I was careful to barely lift the cover as described in the video but the o-ring gasket still fell out of place and I had to totally remove the winch end cover to get it installed.

    why cant they produce a bumper protector that does not require CUTTING UP the stock bumper?? they never look right no mater how well you cut up the bumper. actually the cover does make this one look way better than most. Also, not sure it will pass inspection in some states, you MUST have the liscence plate, also not sure if the 3rd Gen Taco may have issues with this and the skid plate.

    • @heftyfabworks
      @heftyfabworks 9 місяців тому

      We do have front license plate brackets available for them but not all states require a front license plate. Building a winch bumper without cutting the front cover isn't really feasible. If you are looking for a front cover or guard there are some available on the market but that is not the intent of this product. This bumper does work with the factory and most aftermarket skid plates without any interference.

      The Toyota alignment cams are notoriously weak. They tend to bend over and make alignments impossible without repairing them. This is one of the solutions to strengthen the weak points on the lower control arm mounts. It strengthens and reinforces the mounts as well as eliminates the weak point in the Cam Bolt alignment tabs. This is the most aggressive kit on the market for this application, there are other less involved cam tab replacement kits as well that we install and stock.
