Get Your Free Trail-Gear Front Bumper!

[Chris Geiger]

One of the many products we have been working on here at Trail-Gear is front bumpers for 1984-1995 Toyota Pickup and 4Runners. We now have our finished design and have created the Jigs we need to build these bumpers here at our shop. Before we release these for sale we want to make absolutely sure that the fitment and bracket attachment points are correct.

To ensure these bumpers fit correctly we want to test fit each version on a clean, straight truck. So here is the deal.... We need your truck for one day of test fitting. In exchange, you get a FREE BUMPER!

What we need is to have your truck for a full day at our shop in Fresno. We will remove your front bumper, test fit ours and make any needed adjustments. Bumpers will not be painted and will not have any provision for turn signals. In order to be considered, your truck must have a straight frame, no body lift and be in reasonably good condition. OEM style fenders must be installed and in good condition.

We are in need of two trucks. The first is a 1984-1985 Pickup or 4-Runner, the second is a 1986-1988 Pickup. We already have access to the other truck models we need.

If you have a one of the trucks listed above and can leave you truck with us for one full business day, please post a reply to this thread. Please include when you would be able to make your truck available and your contact info.

GRRR, why can't I be on your coast, you could have my truck as long as you need. I'll pay for the shipping if you want to send one over here :D I'll make sure it fits :D Can't wait to see the finished product and pricing.

[Chris Geiger]

It's has to be done here at the shop. We have to put our eyes on it and see how close the hole centers are and to measure the gaps between the bumper and fenders.

If the front of the 4Runner is straight and has never been in an accident then we would like to check it out.

[RedFourRunner]

I also have an 87 4Runner you can use. It's straight and no accidents. I can bring it any time.

The front end is straight. Let me know.

[Tallchevy350]

Never in an accident. Even has the vin# stickers on the fenders from the factory!

Also, the body lift is off.

[hostile]

aw man, the things I would do to get a free bumper for my 95 4runner. I'm pretty sure you're not looking for one but it's all stock and i'm in Tulare, CA. Definitely willing to drive to Fresno and let you have your way with it in exchange.. ;)

Recently bought my girlfriend an engagement ring so even when they're released for the 95's i probably won't be able to afford it for a while.

[Onuris]

Let me know if you decide to build one for a 2001 4Runner, I can drop it off any time for as long as it takes. :thumbs:
