- In this video I go through a revised version of the installation for the Body Armor Hi-Line bumper on my 3rd gen Tacoma TRD Pro. I watched the company's video and read the instructions but I thought several of the steps were not needed. So I skipped them and probably saved 30-40 minutes doing it my way. The installation came out great. The bumper looks nice on the truck.

awesome video...
I installed my bumper today. Your video helped me out a lot. Thanks for taking the time to make it!
Awesome! I'm glad it helped.
Whoa. Cut on your right hand. This is a real install now!!
Video helped a ton! Didn't wana have to pull the whole front bumper off. Cut a 2hr project into a 45min if that project
Thank you for the video
I would like to see another video for how connect the LED bar light
very useful, saves hassel removing all the other stuff!
would love a short on setting up the winch.
gosh that was surprisingly simple
Great video and thanks for all the info!
I just ordered the body armor bumper today. I was curious about the winch and how you like it. Any issues? Have you used it much?
I may go direct wired instead of remote. I heard with the remotes there are only so many frequencies they function on and it is possible someone else’s remote could control your/my winch.
Body armor says the Warn zeon fits in the space but those cost close to $2000!
I went with the Smitty built x2o. Just like the bumper it provided good value with it's price and quality. I've only had to use it once, but I would've been screwed without it. I used the winch in my red cone pass video. I didn't get good footage because I was concentrating on getting unstuck.
@@infinitemods540 Perfect answer! I am getting all this stuff hoping I won't need it, but good to know it is there if I need it. There are places I plan to go that if you need a commercial rescue it is $1000 bucks. I would rather know I have the equipment to take care of myself.
Thanks for the response.
I think, at least in my case, that a winch is just as(or more) valuable than a front locker. I know I chose the winch over the locker because I thought it would be of more use to me in the way I would use it. Lockers wouldn't have helped me much when I got beached on a huge boulder but the winch got me right out. I probably wouldn't have needed the winch if I drove better!
I want to do that to mine, which Smitty Built winch is it ? and where did you find it ?
Can you tell me how far it sticks out from the front in of your truck? Trying to see if my truck will still fit in my garage with this set up. Thank you
lol me too was going to ask the same !!
Did you notice the front of the truck drop? And did you notice the weight while driving?
I didn't really notice any difference with just the bumper and winch. But I added more weight and upgraded front strut springs soon after.
I was just wondering how do you access the lever for getting the winch to freewheel?
You have to pop the hood and reach down to the lever, there's plenty of space for even the biggest of ape arms.
@@infinitemods540 thank you for that...helped a lot
All that dirt don’t effect your car after a while?
We’re do you get the brackets for relocation cooler
The bumper comes with the brackets as part of the hardware kit.
Where is your skid plate? Does the skid plate need to be removed to install the bumper?
Its my understanding the front just needs to drop down a bit. But the way he did the install, it may have bypassed the need for that as well. The BA Bumper is the only one on the market that works with the stock skid plate and TRD skid plate.
@@DFilthySmurf I did bought this bumper and I did not have to take down the skidplate.
Where you get the led light bar??
I got it on Amazon, I can't remember the brand ( 'king' something). It was like $40, which was cheaper than the $120 the body armor light cost.
Any problems with the radar?
Nope, the little bull bar sits low enough that it doesn't interfere.
If you don't bleed you didn't do it right 🙂
That's always been my philosophy. 😂
