thank you!! it took some time to plan it out right.. but i sorta just had an idea of what i wanted and went for it.. cutti g up the stock bumper was really hard for me.. just cause it was in perfect shape.
im not really sure there are plans for it.. but i could totally show you how i built it.. it was really simple. its all bolt on.. and i bet you. could weasel a winch in there. i wanted simple and sleak... problem with toyotas is the front bumper once pulled off is very very large.. which makes ugly after market bumpers.. so what i did is cut the front stock bumper in half.. which eliminates the structure of the plastic, so that is why you see the bumper washers. those are tied into a substructure i made just for holding that part on.. the rest is tied into the frame horns and is really all super basic. if your local to california i could definitely make one for you. im not bi on shipping. and i only design if the truck is here.
Blaaaahhhhhhhh
! this was a quick trip, my friend towed the bikes to SD and we drove across the boarder, stayed in Puerto Noeavo, dropped the bikes then road to Mikes Sky Ranch via dirt/pavement. Since the baja 1000 was two weeks later we really payed attention to course routes and made sure we didn't go against prerunning traffic. From mikes we dropped down the back side to El Coyotes for lunch, then off to Coyote Cals for dinner, a massage, and some tequila. From Coyote Cals we road south on portions of this years 1000 course and dropped into Colonet, and then back to Ensenada for some much needed margaritas and tacos! such a fun trip over all!! we only did about 430miles, but to do that with my wife was just down right amazing! my good friend, my father in law and my wife, made a great group of people to ride with! my wife is a relative newbie but did an amazing job! first time i laid down that many miles on my "big" bike which is a 990 adventure ... i honestly don't think ill ride anything else ever from this point onwards.
