Hi-Lite Overland Front Bumper, No Bull Bar 2010–2024 Toyota 4Runner · Hybrid winch bumper, no hoop

SKU: BWT4R5-103XXBBB

By: Backwoods Adventure Mods

Authorized Backwoods Adventure Mods dealerFactory warranty honored · Fitment help from people who run this gear
$1,999.00

The Hi-Lite Overland Front Bumper without a bull bar gives 2010–2024 Toyota 4Runner owners a clean, high-clearance front end from Backwoods Adventure Mods. It fits every 5th gen 4Runner, including 2010–2013 pre-facelift trucks and Limited models, and trimmed corners help on steep approaches.

The build is a true hybrid: a 28 lb aluminum shell that won't rust sits over a 55 lb steel winch cradle with recovery points bolted to the frame, so the full bumper weighs only 83 lb. The cradle accepts winches up to 12,000 lb, hand cutouts make the clutch easy to reach, and a flat top platform carries a 30-inch light bar. Black powder coat and Grade 8 hardware come with it.

One person can handle the install, and the winch can be mounted to the truck on its own. It works with factory TSS (relocate it if you have the forward camera) and the TRD skid plate. Factory fogs don't carry over, and winches over 10.1 in tall need the solenoid moved. Backwoods Adventure Mods covers the structure with a lifetime warranty, and we ship it free within the contiguous U.S.

Questions we get

Will my winch fit?Most winches up to 12,000 lb drop right in. If yours is taller than 10.1 in (the WARN ZEON is 10.5 in), plan to relocate the solenoid or slightly modify the crossmember.
Does it work with Toyota Safety Sense?Yes. The Hi-Lite keeps the factory TSS sensor working, and on the 2024+ Tacoma it also keeps the parking sensors. 5th gen 4Runners with the forward-facing camera need BAM's TSS relocation bracket (not compatible with the prerunner).
Can I keep my factory fog lights?No, the factory fogs don't carry over. The wings have cutouts for most aftermarket pod lights instead.
How hard is the install?It's a bolt-on one person can handle, and BAM has an install video for each generation. Some 3rd gen Tacomas need a minor tweak to the front transmission line.
Does the winch have to come off with the bumper?No. The winch can be mounted to the truck separately from the bumper.
Can I mount a light bar?On the 2016–2023 Tacoma version, a flat top platform carries a 30 in light bar. Every version has cutouts for pod lights.
