    Can someone link me to a thread that shows how to install a 4 runner front end without changing core support. I'm sure its on here I'm just blind.

    will the 4runner bumper fit the pickup or does it need modification too. I will be checking one out in the next morning. Hopefully to replace one if it fits without mod.

    As stated before yes it will fit. Be sure to grab the 4 Runner mounting brackets and use them.

    So here is what I am wondering... I have seen the truck in this first picture before and I went a completely different way on mounting my 4runner bumper. I got brackets made by Steven and picked them up personally at CanDo. My problem is that the bumper sticks out at both sides like in the second picture below. I also have the 2wd fenders and like the look better than the 4wd fenders. Do you know how they got the fenders tucked in on the first picture?

    IDK... I have watched the videos of that truck on Youtube and seen the picks here and the bumper in the first pic does not look like it is sticking out as far as the one in the second pic. My truck looks like the second pic and I want to tuck them in more. Its a matter of me sticking with my 2wd fenders or getting 4wd fenders. I love the look of the 2wd fenders but hate how far the bumper sticks out.

    I heard you can use washers to help spread out that bottom corner on the fender.
