Thanks man. Been thinking about that winch plate for the same reasons you mention. Looks good. 1. How necessary do you think those bumper reinforcements are since the winch plate itself is already adding extra structure? 2. So the bulldog plate came with no mounting hardware?
To my knowledge nothing has changed in the bumper, the company probably said 16-19 because that was the latest year the product was available during that time frame on the latest Tacoma. They probably didn’t update the compatibility
Googling the product brings up 2 web pages for the site (maybe one old and one new) and the same SKU is given with descriptions for different types years, but all Gen 3. Looks like they only put years up to when they last updated the part description. I've seen reviews from people saying they put it on a 2023. So all Gen 3s.
Why doesn't the BAMF company just make the damn thing so that it fits? I'd have just sent it back for a refund as being falsely advertised. Not all of us have tools to weld and cut metal.
Interesting, never seen a winch mount by itself like that. Do you have a link for the frame supports you used?
Thanks guy, I’ve been thinking about adding a winch to my 21 TRD. I have the wet cement color also, love my taco.

Appreciate the video bud, doing a similar install on a 21 Ford Ranger.
Ohh yeah what an outstanding video explanation thank you. Wanna do this on my Tundra.
Awesome video on the install, where are you located at??
Truck looks great. Do you think 285 75 17 tires would fit on a set up like yours?
Would you recommend this over a slim line bumper?
Is this aftermarket product compatible with the OEM TRD skid plate?
Got a link to the reinforcement bracket?
How much did it squat the truck and what springs are you running?
very Nice Good Job !!!
Good work
Very nice.
great job & helpful
What year is your truck? I know 16 to 23 models are the same but the company says it only fits 16-19 models. Thank you

Side note, just did research onto this guys stuck from your channel, it’s a 2021.

You should at the very least, cover the positive wire to battery, so it doesn't chaff from vibration.
Thanks SeanS54. What I learned here was not to do this installation.
Do u think a 2inch lift will void my 2021 Tacoma warranty
It won’t
Especially if you choose the TRD lift from Toyota
Nice!
