Nice work. I just completed the same install two weeks ago (same winch with control box on the side rather than top). Pretty straight forward. I did have problems getting the pax fog light disconnected until discovering the cover comes off over the light. I could not imagine trying to film the process as you did. Lots of work to do both. Kuddos to you both.
The Dynamic Duo you two! Sweet project and giving Southern Style Overland a little competition for a low profile bumper. I like it a lot. No blue Loctite on dem bolts man? Oh my.
Once the cuts are made, is there any reason you can't put the stock bumper back on and then install the C4? Just wondering if after the cuts, the stock bumper has to stay off before you install the C4. Thanks
Did you have to do a leveling kit or lift kit to deal with the extra weight up front? I want to do this to my 2015 TRD pro but wondering how much the weight up front sinks the nose of the truck on my stock bilstein suspension
I'd think for the price of the bumper that C4 would include hardware to move the power steering line and AC line. Seems like they are cheaping out on that. I have looked at this bumper as a future upgrade and hope C4 makes these changes.
It actually isn't C4s issue, the problem was with the winch. I'm not sure if C4 has a specific winch they suggest for their bumpers. Now the smittybilt winch does have the option to move the control box off to the side, but we figured it would be easier to adjust the power steering line over completely removing the bumper and changing up all the wires and then reinstalling everything.
Great 4Runner and walk-through, know it is an old video but good for research to see what I am going to get into with a low pro. One thing I wish you would have done..... Anti-Seize on those bolts brother, past you helping out future you
looks great but the trim seems a little gappy around the edge ther compared to other ones ive saw but maybe they just tryd not to show the fitmint id like to get one for my 4runner
Most of the videos didn't really show the fitment from what I've seen this is why I wanted to show it. There are definitely ways to improve the fitment. I think we cut off to much but we were just following C4s instructions.
Looks good. I've been looking at the Southern Style Offroad stubby but now I suppose I need to check this one out. Sliders are next for me then either front bumper/winch or lift. What is your opinion on brand of winch? I'm thinking Warn but I'm open for ideas.
So I have a Limited. And I want to get a whole entire new bumper so I can have this on mine. Do you or anyone know where I can find one where it has a whole new bumper with the c4 low profile bumper by any chance?
SnailTrail4x4 really, way to be a dick man. You said you weren’t going to do it because there’s a work up. I clicked the link in the description, it doesn’t tell how at the page. But since you want to be an asshole I’ll stay away from you. What a way to gain subscribers, be a complete jackass instead of just helping people.
Thanks for pointing out to me that that link is incorrect. That was the link that Brenan sent me, and I didn't review it. I see now that it's just a write-up of the same install as the video. I contacted him to see if he's done a write-up on the winch and lights install as he said he would. When the bumper came to me it already had the winch and lights installed so I couldn't show that in the video. Trail4r.com should have a ride up on setting up the bumper, but I haven't been able to find it. As soon as Brenan response to me I will update the link in the description.

The control box on the side would have made things easier
Do you have to remove the TRD skid to install? Or does it just make it easier? Thanks.
Nope, not at all
Looks great guys!!
Thanks so much, it was a rewarding day!
The Dynamic Duo you two! Sweet project and giving Southern Style Overland a little competition for a low profile bumper. I like it a lot. No blue Loctite on dem bolts man? Oh my.
Oh that would have been a smart idea, shoot I didn't think of that. Thanks for suggesting it so others could read that idea
This is awesome, thanks so much for your videos on the 4Runner, helps me alot!
Glad it helped! Thanks for taking the time to comment
Are the plastic radiator air pieces necessary? Instead of trimming them. Are there downsides when they are removed?
If I recall we needed to keep the plastic because it was a part of the mounting brackets for the radiator
Once the cuts are made, is there any reason you can't put the stock bumper back on and then install the C4? Just wondering if after the cuts, the stock bumper has to stay off before you install the C4. Thanks
It's quite possible, but there are lots of bolts and connectors that you need to work on that would be behind the bumper
Awesome video! That 9:54 mark. Great stuff, guys.
Thanks it looks great, we're supper happy with the outcome. Thanks for taking the time to comment

Nice video!! Do you know what size bolt/thread is the one that goes on the the bumper bracket?
Good stuff. Just like the installation of my SSO slimline. Simple, clean, and effective.
Seams like a lot of people got the Slimline.
What KC light bar is this? I cannot find one. BD is really expensive so looking for something of quality, but not as expensive as BD.

Looks great! Also those rectangular cut outs on both sides of fairlead, Can they be used to access the winch or they are just for aesthetics?
So you can access the winch
remember to plugin the factory fog lights. Good tutorial.
Great point, we didn't say that and I should have! Thanks for commenting
@Guillermo Colin Yea, have been using Flixzone for since december myself =)
@Guillermo Colin Yea, have been watching on flixzone for months myself =)

Warn is a great brand definitely one of the best. You won't go wrong choosing them.
That is a sweet bumper, great job.
Thanks so much, it wasn't as difficult as we expected
That face at 6:16 though!!
You did know what to think, haha
Interesting Tacoma you have there. Almost looks like a 4Runner.
OMG, can't believe I wrote that wrong, fixed! Thanks for pointing it out.
@@SnailTrail4x4 of course, lol
hello! i just want to know how you install the trd skid plate on 4runner with kdss? thanks a lot
Whats the setup in the 4runner? Like the suspense, wheels and stuffs
Oh my... So much, 4.5 icon lift with 34" tires. You can read all about it on Trail4R.com or watch some more videos
do they still make it with TRAIL cut out ?
Nice job, looks great
Thank you, and thanks for taking the time to comment
Carriage Bolts with the square shank.
Correct
Why you guys killing your joints with those little socket wrenches? Leverage!
It's our daily workout
Does anyone know if the bumper will fit on a 2015 4Runner limited?
Yes, it should be fine. But I would always check with the manufacturer first
How do you access your freespool and remote hookup on the winch?
There's holes designed into the bumper that we can use to preform those tasks. They are a funky angled shape so they won't be used for lights
SnailTrail4x4 thanks for replying
So I have a Limited. And I want to get a whole entire new bumper so I can have this on mine. Do you or anyone know where I can find one where it has a whole new bumper with the c4 low profile bumper by any chance?
Try a wrecking yard
SnailTrail4x4 okay thanks you have an Instagram man I’ll give ya a follow
I guess the 4runner started out as a Tacoma with a shell right? 🤔
I'm sure their platforms have been pretty similar since 1984
Which bug deflector do you have there?
Can you install a Warn winch with this bumper?
What warn winch are you looking to install? I'm not sure if they all will fit but most should.
how much is the kc light bar?
www.kchilites.com/led-light-bars.html
Also, I don’t see any work up with how the bumper, winch and lights were put together.
Did you watch till the end?
Yeah just watched it again. Don’t see it. You know what I’m talking about right? Hooking the actual lights, winch to the bar?

C'MON man, never insult the 4Runner by saying it looks like a Jeep. smh
Haha, you're right. I should have never done it
