    I have a 2020 Plat tundra. Which means it has some upgraded suspension. My worst fear is fucking up the way my truck rides via mods. If I don't need to lift it, then I won't, but for sure I want to mount an ARB summit bumper. (200lb) .. had anyone put one on a stock tundra? Curious if you needed to make adjustments or if it rode fine on stock?
    And those who have lifted theirs with a bumper, what lift? And did your ride get worse or better or same?

    If you're dead set on putting on the bumper, put it on. See how it feels after driving around for a while and then decide if you want to upgrade your springs and shocks up front.

    I think only TRD Pro, TRD offroad, and TRD sports have different shocks. anything else is just the regular black shocks.

    It is heavier but amazing.. I got to use other day on a deer, not by choice. Little blood splatter but truck is fine. I have the 6112 at 1.9. Rides fine

    If you start adding weight on the bumper like another 80 pounds of winch up there you'll feel the difference. I had to fix it but my shocks I think had 100k+ miles on them.

    If you can use them, I have a set of old man Emu heavy load coil springs I was going to use but ended up replacing my whole setup with kings with 700lb eibach springs.

    I love my ARB bumper. Check out the new Dobinsons bumper though before you order.

    How do the old man emus ride in comparison to stock? And what size lift does that put on it? I definately may be interested.

    Also I just recently installed a 200w led bar in my scoop, does the bumper affect the spread of the light bar?

    You will want upgraded suspension for sure. If your don't the most noticeable thing will be increased brake dive with the front end. The front will also feel squishy around corners and dips. I go with new OME front struts and coils too. Cruiser Outfitters in Utah will have what you need on the shelf and can pre assemble your struts if needed.

    I didn't get a chance to ride in them because they didn't end up pairing with the TRD PRO shocks I had from a newer model.

    If you're talking about the scoop like from a PRO then definitely no interference. The bar doesn't interfere with the bulge light I have in at all.

    So did you lift your vehicle at all? Or just replaced with more durable suspension?

    I lifted the front about 2.5 inches and did 1" lift blocks in the rear. New struts and coils up front and new shocks and blocks in the rear.
