Upgrade your 3rd Gen Toyota Tacoma with a TRUE hybrid front winch bumper engineered for strength, lightweight performance, and aggressive high-clearance styling. Featuring a 26 lb aluminum outer shell paired with a 54 lb steel winch cradle, this bumper delivers the ideal balance—steel where you need maximum recovery strength and aluminum everywhere else to eliminate rust and reduce front-end weight.
