Tundra rear bumper ideas

[Cleanmiss]

Hey guys and gals! First time poster, long time reader and fairly new member. I really need some help with my departure angle situation and I thought who better to ask for ideas than this group. I have an 01 tundra and I'm trying to come up with a rear bumper solution. I have considered fabbing one up myself BUT I'd like to hear some of your ideas. I have also been curious about modifying a 100 series or tacoma custom bumper to fit. The original plan was to build a quicky out of 2x4" 3/16 tubing but i want to keep it looking clean. Any help would be deeply appreciated! Thanks for your time

Tacoma one would be too narrow. All of the UZJ100 ones I've seen wrap around.
Fab is probably your best bet

I do like how the 100 series wrap around, I planned on cutting the bed sides either way. But I think you're right I may just have to fab one up from scratch! Thanks much

For high clearance a wrap around design will be your best option. The 100 series bumper would not be worth the effort. Here is one I did on an 04 and my 100 series bumper for compression

Here's a simple one I built for my Tacoma. Could easily be replicated on a Tundra. Simple design but worked really well for me.

It evolved over the years to include a couple swingouts

Me likely. Got some other pictures for reference?

I knew I asked the right place! I do like both styles and I'm definitely putting a tire swing out and a receiver for sure. Box Rocket do you have any side pics?

There are lots of photos in the build thread for my Tacoma. It's a long thread so you may have to dig a little but lots of photos from the beginning through all its changes.

Nice bumpers! I purchased enough steel to build something similar to the fj80 4x4 labs rear bumper. I will make some adjustments that will fit my build a little better. I do plan on trimming the bed sides. Not that I'm planning on making a four door full size truck into a rock crawler. It should help me not damage the back end when turning around on a tighter trail.

This is the general plan. Measurements are general.

Not sure if you were able to dig into my build thread so here's a few different angle along with a variety of changes I made over the years.

Here's a few pics from another one I built for a guy. Basically a copy of my own, with a few tweaks at the customer's request.

Here's mine. I plan to add 2 swing outs for gas cans. I don't plan on mounting the tire on the swing outs. Would rather have it tucked away underneath the bed in the stock location.
