    I've had two of them--2014 4Runner and 2019 Tacoma--both excellent.

    Last question. Lifetime warranty? Also, are the instructions good?

    I have one and would purchase again. Mine was almost 4 weeks late, but the reasons for it being late is due to SSO doing a quality check, which is good, they noticed the powder coating was not done properly, so SSO sent it back to powder coating and then Hurricane Ida hit the area causing shipping delays. It took about 5 months to receive. I was in no rush and figured if I had within 6 months, then I’d be alright.

    Instructions are fine. I don't remember about the warranty but I'm sure their website can answer that question.

    I install a couple years ago and it has been great - my only issue s access to the winch controls when needed (I just remove the plastic guard under the hood to access it I can't reach through the bumper(which I usually can). Wanderlost Overland has excellent step by step installation video on You Tube that I followed and it was a breeze :)

    I put one on my 2016 Tacoma and it was very well made and looks great. I went with a Warn 10s EVO winch, and had to make a minor adjustment to the support between the radiator and the front grill to fit the control pack since I didn't want to relocate it. Not sure if that is a problem on the 4runner or not. Install was relatively easy, but time consuming. Definitely get the winch and light bar installed and tested/adjusted before you mount the bumper, as taking it on and off to make adjustments is no fun.
