{"product_id":"c4-fabrication-rock-runner-front-bumper-for-2nd-gen-tacoma","title":"C4 Fabrication Rock Runner Front Bumper for 2nd Gen Tacoma","description":"\u003cp class=\"product-lead\"\u003eThe C4 Fabrication Rock Runner Front Bumper is a modular, winch-ready steel front bumper built for 2005–2011 second-generation Toyota Tacomas. Constructed from 11-gauge laser-cut P\u0026amp;O steel with 3\/16-inch mounting plates and a reinforced winch plate, it weighs 85 pounds in either Plate Sides or Tube Sides configuration and accepts winches rated 8,000 to 12,000 pounds. Three wing styles and two finish options let buyers configure the bumper to match their build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eModular Construction That Adapts to Your Build\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Rock Runner uses a three-piece design with bolt-on wings, which means the bumper can be staged for installation in sections rather than wrestled into place as a single heavy assembly. Plate Sides and Tube Sides both weigh 85 pounds for the front section, keeping the weight manageable during a garage install. Wide Tube Sides are available for rigs running fiberglass front ends, so the bumper fits the actual body rather than requiring bodywork to accommodate a universal wing profile. Adding the optional low bar increases total weight by 5 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt for Recovery, Not Just Looks\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree-quarter-inch D-ring tabs are fully welded front and back on every Rock Runner, providing solid recovery anchor points without relying on bolt-on hardware that can loosen over time. The reinforced winch plate accepts most 8,000- to 12,000-pound winches, and a recessed fairlead plate keeps the rope line clean. Front cutouts provide direct access to the winch lever without removing any body panels. C4 Fabrication confirms fitment with Smittybilt X20 and Warn VR series winches; winches with an integrated control box may require minor trimming of the grille support brackets. Synthetic rope with a hawse-style fairlead is recommended for best functionality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrame Support and Skid Integration Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditional frame support brackets ship with every second-generation Tacoma Rock Runner, reinforcing the connection between the bumper and the factory frame. A winch cover plate and bridge skid are also included, ready to tie into the factory cross member or C4 Fabrication's skid plate systems. Buyers who select the cross member delete package receive a replacement cross member, a Rock Runner front skid plate, and a power steering relocation kit in place of the factory cross member.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFinish Options and Pre-Install Requirements\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Rock Runner ships in Raw (bare steel) or Powder Coat finish. Raw variants ship as bare steel and must be painted or powder coated before installation to prevent rust; C4 Fabrication recommends test-fitting before coating to confirm alignment and fitment. Powder-coated variants are ready for installation without additional surface treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e11-gauge P\u0026amp;O steel construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e laser-cut body with 3\/16-inch mounting plates and reinforced winch plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3\/4-inch D-ring tabs:\u003c\/strong\u003e fully welded front and back, standard on every bumper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree-piece modular design:\u003c\/strong\u003e bolt-on wings in Plate Sides, Tube Sides, or Wide Tube Sides (fiberglass fitment)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWinch-ready:\u003c\/strong\u003e accepts 8,000–12,000 lb winches; recessed fairlead plate and lever-access cutouts included\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e winch cover plate, bridge skid, and additional frame support brackets\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade in USA:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% American made\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eVehicle Fitment\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2005–2011 Toyota Tacoma (2nd Gen)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBody Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e11-gauge laser-cut P\u0026amp;O steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eMounting Plate Thickness\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e3\/16 inch\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eD-Ring Tab Thickness\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e3\/4 inch, fully welded front and back\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eFront Section Weight (Plate or Tube Sides)\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e85 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBull Bar Weight (optional)\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e+5 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eWinch Compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e8,000–12,000 lb capacity winches\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eFinish Options\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eRaw (bare steel) \/ Powder Coat\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eWing Style Options\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePlate Sides \/ Tube Sides \/ Wide Tube Sides (fiberglass)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eIncluded\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eWinch cover plate, bridge skid, frame support brackets\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eMade in USA\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Is For and Isn't\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-yes\"\u003eThe Rock Runner Front Bumper suits 2005–2011 second-generation Toyota Tacoma owners who wheel regularly and want a winch-capable, recovery-ready front end built from heavy-gauge domestic steel. The three wing styles make it a practical choice for both steel-body and fiberglass-front builds, and the modular design accommodates a staged installation without a full shop setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-no\"\u003eThis bumper does not fit any Tacoma generation outside 2005–2011. The optional low bar is not compatible with Toyota Safety Sense. Raw-finish variants are not ready to install without painting or powder coating first. The cross member delete package requires cutting out the factory cross member, which is not reversible without additional fabrication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eWhich winches fit the Rock Runner Front Bumper?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe C4 Fabrication Rock Runner Front Bumper accepts most winches rated between 8,000 and 12,000 pounds. Confirmed fitment includes the Smittybilt X20 and Warn VR series. Winches with an integrated control box may require minor trimming of the grille support brackets. A synthetic rope winch paired with a hawse-style fairlead is recommended for best functionality with the recessed fairlead plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eDoes the bumper include D-rings or a winch?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe Rock Runner Front Bumper ships with 3\/4-inch D-ring tabs fully welded front and back. No separate purchase is needed for recovery points. A winch cover plate and bridge skid are also included. A winch is not included and must be purchased separately. D-rings (shackles) to insert into the tabs are not listed as included and should be sourced separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eWhat does the cross member delete package add?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eSelecting the cross member delete package means the factory cross member is cut out and replaced with a C4 Fabrication upgrade. The package includes the replacement cross member, a Rock Runner front skid plate, and a power steering relocation kit. This modification is not reversible without additional fabrication, so it is best suited to dedicated trail or overland builds rather than daily drivers that may need factory service access.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eDoes the Raw finish need any prep before installation?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eYes. Raw-finish Rock Runner bumpers ship as bare steel and must be painted or powder coated before installation to prevent rust. C4 Fabrication recommends test-fitting the bumper first to confirm alignment and fitment before sending it out for coating, since adjustments are easier on bare steel than on a finished surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eIs the bull bar compatible with Toyota Safety Sense?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eNo. The optional low bar bull bar is not compatible with Toyota Safety Sense. Tacoma owners whose trucks are equipped with Toyota Safety Sense should select the No Bull Bar configuration to avoid interference with the system's sensors.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"C4 Fabrication","offers":[{"title":"Raw \/ Plate Sides \/ No Bull Bar","offer_id":50628191682630,"sku":"1200-3505-NB-P","price":1249.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Raw \/ Plate Sides \/ Yes - Low Bar","offer_id":50628191715398,"sku":"1200-3505-MH-P","price":1349.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Raw \/ Tube Sides \/ No Bull Bar","offer_id":50628191748166,"sku":"1200-3505-NB-T","price":1249.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Raw \/ Tube Sides \/ Yes - Low Bar","offer_id":50628191780934,"sku":"1200-3505-MH-T","price":1349.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Raw \/ Wide Tube Sides (for fiber glass) \/ No Bull Bar","offer_id":50628191813702,"sku":"1200-3505-NB-T-W","price":1299.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Raw \/ Wide Tube Sides (for fiber glass) \/ Yes - Low Bar","offer_id":50628191846470,"sku":"1200-3505-MH-T-W","price":1399.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Powder Coat \/ Plate Sides \/ No Bull Bar","offer_id":50628191879238,"sku":"1200-3505-NB-P-01NA","price":1399.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Powder Coat \/ Plate Sides \/ Yes - Low Bar","offer_id":50628191912006,"sku":"1200-3505-MH-P-01NA","price":1499.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Powder Coat \/ Tube Sides \/ No Bull Bar","offer_id":50628191944774,"sku":"1200-3505-NB-T-01NA","price":1399.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Powder Coat \/ Tube Sides \/ Yes - Low Bar","offer_id":50628191977542,"sku":"1200-3505-MH-T-01NA","price":1499.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Powder Coat \/ Wide Tube Sides (for fiber glass) \/ No Bull Bar","offer_id":50628192010310,"sku":"1200-3505-NB-T-W-01NA","price":1449.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Powder Coat \/ Wide Tube Sides (for fiber glass) \/ Yes - Low Bar","offer_id":50628192043078,"sku":"1200-3505-MH-T-W-01NA","price":1549.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0691\/2203\/1686\/files\/2ndGenTacomaRockRunnerBumperCover_ce42f68e-e8e8-46d2-a862-b62d9b76845d.jpg?v=1791944298","url":"https:\/\/terrainvault.com\/products\/c4-fabrication-rock-runner-front-bumper-for-2nd-gen-tacoma","provider":"TerrainVault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
