This bumper is designed to replace your weak stock bumper. It’s made from heavy-duty square steel tubing and plates. The bumper is mounted on the frame in the original towing hitch holes. The bumper accommodates a recessed towing hitch, two recovery points, tire carrier and HI-lift jack holder. The tire carrier rotates on the double bearing, sealed heavy-duty spindle. The tire carrier includes two spring loaded pins that allow it to be in a completely closed or open position. The carrier is rated to 2,000 pounds. The license plate relocation bracket is also included. Set-up is easy and can be done at home without any modifications. Only two small holes are required on the ends of the frame rails. The stop plate on top of the bumper should also be riveted (rivets included). There is also a required  exhaust relocation mounting bracket. This bumper fits 1996 and 2002 4 Runners without modifications.
