First you have a great truck i had one second i like how you’re fabricating everything yourself and not like other guys who spend thousands and you made it yourself.
Nice build Mike, love the step by step! Only two things I'd add are a second catch to lock it open so it doesn't smack the tailgate, and some flush mount LED reversing pods?
Awesome job! This is the kind of content I appreciate, honest, simple, DIY…good job! Picked up a ‘99 Taco for my son, gonna show this to him so he see what’s possible!
Man I love this! I’m not a great welder or fabricator but I’m going to use this as a how to and try and make one for my Tacoma this winter. Also love those wheels. I have the same ones but in black.
Just got my Amazon plasma cutter. I have a couple projects to clear out of the que. Then ima start fabbing on the Taco as well! Great job on the tire carrier.
Video came out just in time for me to watch while eating dinner 😎
Most relatable comment 😂
Love the true DIY build style. Makes me want to try my hand at welding real bad!
It's great to see your ideas come to life using your own hands. Keep it up.
hell ya turned out great. I love clean simple design. Welds look FIRE
Dude this turned out awesome! Been loving watching the Tacoma build progress man! Keep it up 🤘🏽
Thank you bro!
Mike upload more please. This is still the only 4x4 content I look forward to watching
That 6.0 is a beauty, you should make some content on those Super Duty's
You’re not the first to say it! I think I will!
I get so fired up every time you drop a vid. great work as always.
Finally! A diy bumper that doesn’t require a shop worth of tools. Thanks I will be trying this on my 3rd gen 4 runner
I love when you instantly regret your decision and verbally bad mouth yourself at 5:55. I laughed VERY out loud.
Great video and keep them coming!!
I will! Thanks for watching 👍🏻👍🏻
The best part it’s “you did it yourself” you should feel proud of yourself. 👍🏼
Good job young man it feels so much better when you build it yourself
It really does! More work but it’s something to be proud of
Super clean bumper man! Love the content, can’t wait to see you wheel the taco 👍
Absolutely loved the video. What I enjoyed the most was your humble personality. Great job all the way around!
Arguably some of the best content on TH-cam.
You’re too nice!

Your diy is awesome, I just picked up a late model 1999 tacoma. Going to use you Chanel as inspiration.
Beautiful truck, watching you inspires me to fix up my 04 sequoia

Man I love this! I’m not a great welder or fabricator but I’m going to use this as a how to and try and make one for my Tacoma this winter. Also love those wheels. I have the same ones but in black.

Sweet , let me know how they go!
Love the videos Mike. Keep the great DIY videos coming. I watch them as soon as you upload. Been watching since day one.
Thanks for watching and being an OG!
You're going to need to add a couple loops for chains if you pull a trailer with it. Other than that, great build, great video!
I love it man looks good Love your gen 1 Tacoma I miss mine but I got me a new 23 taco access cab
You should think of a stop for the tire carrier when it is open
Yea I had a plan for one, still trying to figure out how to incorporate it correctly though.
You absolutely killed this build bro!!! Love it
Thank you 🫡
Thanks for this video Mike! I didn't know they made a hinge kit!
Great vids. You deserve more subscribers. Keep them coming!
wonderful design and execution. Trigger them gaps in. sand 'em flush. weld 'em out. Easy Peasy! 🍻
Easy money!
your welds look really professional. I look forward to seeing it 4 wheel .
Thank ya!
Don’t know why you don’t have 250k subs. Great videos. Would love to see more suspension stuff if you’ve got plans for it.
Nice welds and looks great bro 😎 good job 👏
Thank ya!
Dude, that looks amazing. Love your videos
Always looking forward to these Toyota videos. Awesome tire carrier, turned out great!
Excent job but you need to move that bumper out another 1/2". Once you start going down a bumpy trail the body and the swingarm will move.
Hasn’t been an issue yet. Thanks!
Heck yeah Mike! Very clean simple bumper/tire carrier. 🤘🏼
maybe add a second spring pin by the hinge to lock it open also! nice job man
That rack is amazing. Great work.
Nice and simple, just enough doohickeys to make it versatile 👍
Doohickies and various nick nacks
Let's go! Post, my dude. It's been a month.
Great design! Beefy! Welds are looking damn good. 👍
Welds are looking crispy!
🥓🥓
Killer set up man! Watched this and like 3 other videos. You have a new sub!
Hey welcome and thanks for subbing!
