On occasions, it takes some muscle t o work the studs in. ![]() If not, I have found the studs are impossible to line up with frame holes. ![]() The entire bumper must be slid into place all at one time. In other words, you cannot place one end of the bumper on, and then the other. After installing over a dozen of these, I have found that to line up the studs with the factory frame holes on the Jeep, the bumper must be slid into place evenly or parallel to the face of the Jeep. Therefore, to fasten the bumper to the frame, you need six (6) nuts and two (2) bolts (all provided with lock washers and flat washers). The FS-6 is manufactured with six (6) fixed studs and two (2) nuts. Since the mounting base and fairlead locations are integrated in the bumper design, a winch installation should be next to complete the overall look of the bumper package. The only major negative is that if a winch is not installed, the FS-6 leaves a void in the location where one should be installed. Installation takes about 1-1/2 hours, which includes removal of the factory front bumper and plastic skid plate. The FS-6 is also provided with two solid mount galvanized, ¾” D-Rings to provide two tow points in the front of the vehicle. The coating was also found to repel mud, lea ving no stains behind as some powder coatings do. The steel series bumpers are also provided with two-stage textured flat black powder coating to provide a strong durable finish that matches industry standards. With this feature, the FS-6 is one of DV8’s deeper bumpers in regards to height, concealing more of the cross member of the front of the frame. The FS-6 allows the winch to be recessed within the bumper, providing some concealment of the recovery apparatus. With the ability to accommodate up to a 12,500 lb winch, the FS-6 has an integrated winch base and fairlead mounting location. A unique characteristic of this bumper is the recessed winch mounting location. In addition, the 2” tube stingers add protection for the grille as well as providing two welded light tabs for mounting additional lights. So far I have had no issues with the Dynamic Radar Cruise Control in my truck with this grill guard.The DV8 Off-Road FS-6 front bumper gives that added clearance for a high-degree approach angle with raised corners for better entry and exit angles in extreme conditions. However, this opening ensures no interference with the radar sensor. I've read that other Ranch Hand grill guards had the mesh over the Toyota badge with the radar sensor and suffered no interference. This is where the radar sensor for the pre-collision alert and Dynamic Radar Cruise Control is located. The TRD Off Road does not have the air dam installed so the steps involving cutting the slits could be skipped in my case.Īlso to note, the mesh that sits in front of the truck grill has an opening in front of the Toyota badge. Once we got that sorted, the install was fairly easy with common hand tools. There is a small plastic splash guard trim piece that is right in the way where the bottom mounting bracket drops below the truck. I found the hardest part of the install was mounting the bottom brackets. The guard looks good once installed on my '18 Tacoma! The guard changes the look of the front end and matches the black trim on the fender flares and bumper.
