2002 Toyota Tundra Access Cab

Anybody have any experience with either of these after market front bumpers? Real question is will it provide more clearance/space for the large front tires and reduce or stop the front tires from rubbing on turns.

I put ARB front on the Tacoma...only one made still. Tires rub on the rear and inside front on frames.
I had put 16" TRD rims & Coopers on it and it rubbed with lift. Mud flaps still won't clear.
Great for hwy trips.
I went back to the 15's and Cooper maxx and no rubbing and actually better ride. Left the mudflaps off which I don't like.

Front snow & mud clearance is good.
Bigger tires & wheels rub. Rear of well & inside front on frame.

Big flaw on most trucks is lack of chain clearance space in front. Sticking the wheels outside the body is an even more stupid fix,IMHO.

Recently put aftermarket front bumper on the F-150 and love it. Kit model.
I did it on both for real metal & brighter lights.
And they look cool.

Get to the toppa!

Picked up this topper this morning from Manny in Broomfield. Perfect color match and good fit. I’m stoked. But god does the traffic on I-70 suck.

New gas struts from Amazon for $20 and the glass stays up like it should. Now I just gotta fix/replace the latch mechanism.

Love my snugtop.
Has saved me many times.
Cab broken into twice and no one ever looks in the shell. Hell it was left unlocked and untouched.
Prints all over the cab,but they just can't seem to find anyone...albacrackie.

Go with the Coastal bumper and a center hoop; have them powered coat. I did RCI for my Tacoma and loved it. Get a skid plate too.

On Tacomas it’s the body mount or UCA where rubbing happened. Just be mindful of you tire size/ offset. Great rig!!

Some new latches aka striker plates from Amazon, a little drilling and some redneck spacers and the topper latches down. Not a perfect seal but much improved.

Just giving you crap. I've run into scaredy cats on the mountain. I even chained a guys truck with my chains to get down one night. Down hill is as bad as up sometimes. If I could have driven around him I might have left him there. But I'm a nice guy. mtmuley

My wife is a scaredy cat about ice too. Studded tires on her LandCruiser for a long time. Even our tire guy joked about it with her.
