The Hi-Lite Overland Front Bumper with Prerunner Bull Bar gives 2010–2024 Toyota 4Runner trucks a race-inspired single-bar profile with real winch and recovery capability. It fits all 5th gen 4Runners, including 2010–2013 pre-facelift and Limited models, and its high-clearance shape leaves room for aggressive approaches.

Backwoods Adventure Mods builds it as a hybrid: a 30 lb aluminum shell that won't rust bolts to a 55 lb steel winch cradle whose recovery points anchor to the frame, for a total of 85 lb. The cradle carries winches up to 12,000 lb, hand cutouts make the clutch easy to reach, and the flat top holds a 30-inch light bar alongside pod light cutouts. It ships in black powder coat with Grade 8 hardware.

One person can bolt it on, and the winch can be mounted to the truck separately. It retains factory TSS (relocated if you run the forward camera) and the TRD skid plate. Factory fog lights don't carry over, and winches over 10.1 in tall need the solenoid relocated. Backwoods Adventure Mods backs 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.

How is the prerunner different from the full bull bar?The prerunner uses one center hoop over the grille instead of a full triple-hoop bar, so it's a few pounds lighter and leaves the front end more open.
