    I have an 05 Toyota Tundra sr5 AC v8 4.7 4x4. I smoked two deer, 5 miles apart... 15 minutes apart on my way to work a month or so back. I cracked the lower bumper and took out a fog light. I also had the plastic in the fender well hanging down, so just to get to work with out all the rubbing, I cut some of that out.
    I’m hoping to find a bumper I can put on with a little more clearance on the tires. I do have a three inch lift and slightly wider tires. So with the factory bumper, I always rubbed. I’ve prowled around the forums and have seen all the suggestions of DIY weld bumpers that spear to have that clearance... or pay s pretty dollar to a fabricator... it’d be nice to get that kind of clearance that comes with the off road aftermarket bumpers... even if it’s plastic, is there an option anyone could think of that would have that same type of clearance?

    If I didn’t have the lift, I’d be looking for a grill, headlights, fenders, a hood... he went under, just caught the bumper
