2021 4R deerguard

Looks like RanchHand does not make one that bolt on, are there any other options?

 

Have found that a Westin brand is available; in case anyone in the future searches for this

 

I hope you are not talking about this kind of "brush guard" things. IMO these are utter ugly and useless. May be will work as a "brush guard" protecting from car wash brushes.. LOOOL...




If you are looking for protection against animal strike please look for a proper bumper that is fitted to the frame and absorb the force towards the frame.

 

Steel bumper might stop a small white tail.

Mule deer will ruin your day no matter what you have up front.

 

Oh, my - those are 'cosmetic' deer guards.
Well, I am looking at ARB now, they might be more substantial.

 

Yep. Good that you realized that and I see few don't get it. Take your time on this. There's light weight aluminum options and stronger and heavy steel options. If its too heavy for your springs you might have to spend on that as well. When adding that kind of bumper will allow you to add winch at the same time.

 

Hope this article help you with good companies -

Yeah, we have whitetail, muledeer, javelina, elk and the worst is the #&@ feral hogs, omg a bain on our driving existence. They will clean an axle right off the vehicle. I have a really solid Ranchhand on my Tundra so I am looking for something like that.

 

You got any Jackalopes?

 

Actually have some big-ass hares that you'd be forgiven for mistaking for a jackalope!

And of course, there are the marauding herds of Chupacabras....

 

Even though I just finished installing a Body Armor bumper (and I am pleased with it) but the Relentless bumper featured in this link (https://trail4runner.com/2018/08/21/front-bumpers-5th-gen-4runner/) looks pretty cool - I like how it just tucks in nicely to the bumper cover. For me, less is more...

 

i called ARB-USA; they have nothing that will fit a 2021 4R(after much time wasted with unknowledgeable dealers)

On to the next brand.

 

If you are interested give a call to Hefy Fabworks. They are in CO and they are first on my list when I'm ready for bumpers. My preferred 4x4 shop Toytec highly recommend them.

Depending on the speed hitting wild-life; nevertheless, Aluminum is sold a lot because it's light weight, never buy this for high impact applications, steel is the only option. Maybe not.

I like depleted uranium, will do the job, even for Mule-Deer on high speed... Lol.
