Thanks man. Very helpful video. I opted for cutting 2 inches below instead of one and it came out great but mostly cause of your video! Keep up the good work man.
I’ve taken my bumper off and on so many times already for light mods that I’ve lost half the bolts that button up those corners, lol. I’m gonna do this cut soon since I might as well 😂 zero issues with a flapping bumper or anything
Love it but would have added a black edge protector to bring the black finder flair color down... not to mention, leaving raw plastic and paint edge will eventually cause the paint to let go... Just a matter of time or a good edge hit that then will be tough to hide... Other than that, I love it & intend to do it. Thanks!
Thanks for this video! The Viper cut seem too aggressive to me. This looks cut looks a lot like what I would go for. Now to have the courage to actually cut....
Do you have a FB page or website with pictures of your 4runner after this mod? Would like to see some from the sides and further away to see the entire front end.
Thank you for this video! I love this cut! How did you go about covering up the exposed areas when you trimmed away the fender liner? Especially the passenger side where the washer fluid resevoir is located? Also, what kind of dremel/blade is that you're using?
I did this Mod and it came out GREAT! Now I have my focus on a Snorkel. Looking at a Prado Snorkel, but trying to find information on the install has proven difficult.
SHWELL11 awesome! Glad it worked out for ya! The snorkel install isn’t going to be easy. There really isn’t any info on it at all. I had a buddy here in town do it.
@@Ruston_smith I was afraid you would say that. I ordered it anyway, seeing your setup tells me it can be done, so I am gonna try and hopefully nail it!
I change the title to 4runner high Clarence chop. Easy to find this video. Didn’t find this video just happen to show after watching bush wack fender installed
I really love how this looks, but I'm not a big fan of leaving the fog light connections wide open to mud/water/salt. Any future plans to maybe fabricate some plastic fender lining to keep those components covered up? The metal tab that was bent up could still be utilized. Thanks for the video!!
That would be killer. But probably not. I ran with chopped fender liner for years when i had the full front on the truck. So it’s not much of a concern to me.
So you cut the plastic wheel well liner allowing mud and water to splash into your fog light, et. al. Couldn’t you do this cut and reset the liner? The only fail I see with your cut angle that I like.
I like this idea, but it looks unfinished. Too bad you couldn’t add a small coping along the cut fron the black fender flare. The bending of the attachment point also looks like it could be better thought out.
I like this look as well. SSO sells rubber liners for the edges for their stage 2, I’m sure could be used for this mod. That stage 2 requires their bumper as well, so this stage one is a great start.
Question, I got a 5gen 4Runner, got bigger tires, it’s rubbing on the fender liners, what’s the best way and cheapest way to fix the rubbing? Level kit? Remove and modify the fender liners? Thanks
Just push the fender liner forward. You can simply undo the bolt that attaches into the bottom of the liner, push it forward, drill a new hole and put the bolt back in.
Overlanding USA thank you.. and one think I forgot, it always rubs on the mud flaps... anyway best way to also fix the issue? Maybe take off the mud flaps( but I like on ) or maybe shave off a little from it? Thanks again
Who is coming up with numbering of stage 1 and stage 2? I understand mfg-ers can call their products into stages but when you do manual mod yourself by cutting it naming it stage 1 seems strange. Am i missing something here?
Wondering if same could be done on 2017 Tacoma TRD? I also have the same 4Runner- did bummer start to make noise? And will this create problem if we go with full high clearance bumper in future??
spencer graham no noise at all. The bumper is still fixed at all but one of the factory points. So it’s very sturdy. I do not think it would effect your ability to go full as most of those are a much much more aggressive cut
Quedó hecho mierda 😅. A la maldita sea. Mal hecho los cortes y los detalles del guardapolvo cortado chueco 🤦🏻♂️ Ahora se ve todo lo qué hay detrás del guardachoque y los cables 👎🏽, ahora tendrá filtraciones de agua en los neblineros y conexiones eléctricas
