C4 Fabrication Tacoma Overland Front Bumper / 3rd Gen / 2016-2023

Introduction

Meet the C4 Fabrication Tacoma Overland Front Bumper, engineered for 3rd Gen Toyota Tacomas (2016–2023) who demand serious off-road readiness without compromising approach angles. This winch-ready bumper combines rugged steel construction with thoughtful light and accessory integration, making it ideal for overlanders, rock crawlers, and expedition crews who push beyond the trail.

Key Features

• 3/16" laser-cut P&O steel construction with 1/4" mounting plates for enduring strength and precise fitment.
• 3/4" thick D-ring tabs fully welded front and back, built to handle demanding recovery scenarios.
• Weight: 115 lbs (no bull bar); 125 lbs (mid-height bull bar); 130 lbs (full-height bull bar); 135 lbs (full-height bull bar with headlight hoops).
• Integrated winch compatibility for 8k–12k units; designed to accommodate winches that relocate their electrical control box.
• Designed to fit 30" single-row light bars, with specific support for the Baja Designs S8 and compatibility with Extreme LED 30" 5D and RIGID 30" SR series.
• Fog light pockets engineered for Baja Designs Squadron lights; factory fog lights are not supported.
• Paint or powder coat required unless you select the powder-coated option to prevent rust after install.

Fitment & Installation

• Directly intended for 3rd Gen Toyota Tacomas (2016–2023).
• Requires cutting of the plastic bumper to install.
• Cutouts in front of the bumper provide winch lever access.
• Some winches may require relocating the electrical control box; integrated control box winches may need trimming of grille support brackets to fit.
• Roller fairleads can be too large for the recessed fairlead mounting plate—plan for a hawse-style fairlead with synthetic rope for best fitment.
• Mid-height bull bar is not compatible with Toyota Safety Sense.

Winch & Electrical Considerations

• Fits most 8k–12k winches (e.g., ComeUp, Smittybilt X20, Warn Zeon, VR series) with allowance for relocation of the control box.
• Using a synthetic rope and a hawse-style fairlead is recommended for optimal performance and winding behavior.

Lighting & Accessories Compatibility

• Designed to accommodate a 30" single-row light bar, with specific support for Baja Designs S8.
• Compatible with Extreme LED 30" 5D and RIGID 30" SR series lights.
• Fog light pockets tailored for Baja Designs Squadron lights; factory fog lights are not supported.

Construction, Finish & Durability

• Material: 3/16" laser-cut P&O steel with 1/4" thick mounting plates for robust mounting and rigidity.
• Finish: Choose powder coat to prevent rust; otherwise, painting or coating is required before installation.

What to Expect on Install

• Significant off-road protection with reinforced D-ring tabs and solid mounting.
• Enhanced recovery capability and winch integration for aggressive trail use.
• Clear pathways for winch lever access and lighting integration, with careful attention to clearance for certain fairlead types.
