CBI Offroad Front Bumper Install on the 4Runner!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- BOOM! CBI 4Runner front bumper installed! If this is an install you’re going to do yourself - there are tons of good little tips in this video. I couldn’t be happier with the final look and feel of what I believe to be the best quality and best looking steel bumper available for the 5th gen 4runner. The next video will be the detailed install of the REAR BUMPER! I'll also be getting into detail updating you on fuel mileage and impressions on how it handles with all the extra weight!
Make sure you’re subscribed so you get the notification of the rear bumper install - and you don’t miss the special announcement on what I am doing with my old C4 Lo Pro bumper!

When you’re actually filming and narrating it’s fantastic and much more appealing than the in-your-face rambling blogs which seems to be about 75% of the content.
As someone whose watched your videos from the start, I’m super happy for you and your sponsorship. Means you’re doing something right! Keep riding this success I’m excited to see where it goes my friend.
Thanks dalton!
The guy from the 'Engineering Explained' channel says spacers are fine and backs it up with actual math & science. Plus...you have to love the 'look' of the rig! Its your rig, build it like you want it!
The rattle can shading pre bumper install is PRO AF..
I've had 1.25 spidertrax on my 4runner for over 6 years and the same spacers on my FJ Cruiser for two years now. I've rock crawled, jumped dunes, blasted desert trails at over 90mph, towed heavy trailers and daily drove them. Not worried about my Spidertrax even while running 35x12.5 tires.
I need to do some more research on the spacers. I love the look, but just one horror story got me scared. Not for myself per say, but it's my daily driver. I have a 5 year old and a baby on the way. Got this daddy worried ha
@@Brandles5 I don't blame your skepticism. About 12 years ago I had a wheel spacer catastrophe of my own on my car on the freeway. It's proof you get what you pay for and the spidertrax makes a very high quality product. You can see in my last video of me blasting my FJ in excess of 80mph on unforgiving terrain, big jumps and crash landings with 6 year old wheel spacers. The spidertrax spacers are hubcentric so the weight of the vehicle isn't stressing out the wheel studs.
@@CACressida Nice to hear some first hand experience with them. I appreciate that! Also, did you say video of you blasting your FJ? Yep I now have that on my 2nd monitor and checking it out :)
SpiderTrax spacers are top notch! I wouldn't worry too much about what others think of you using them.
Looks very nice. I like the original bumper better, but my vote doesn't matter here. If you like it then that's all that counts.
I like the look of the first one you had alot more. But I'm sure as time goes on I will warm up to the chopped look. I'm a new owner of a 5th gen 4runner, and the frontend does something for me like it is. Great vid as always, Sir.
You have to SuperCharge this beast. , There is a major component missing from the engine compartment. Looking Good!!!
New suspension and new bumper, It's heavy duty, Proper heavy duty. Looking good.
Looks amazing! Love the step by step installs, but that scenery at the end is just gorgeous!
I work for a major precision medicine company, attention to detail in this video is the attention to detail we are trying to get the oncology treatment community to slow down and replicate. Long story... Anyway, I know this may be an odd connection to this video but overland is something I’m looking at doing and I need to be “precise” about it because my family will be in the TRO... well I’m planning on a TRO anyway
I am not a Toyota guy but dang, CBI made a perfect bumper for the 4runner. It really is a rugged glove like fit! Looks great!
You can get black rubber grommet to fit over the cut on the body line above the new front bumper. It would finish it off nicely!
Love to see how this truck has progressed. You convinced me with the spacers I have -10mm and was kind of hesitant.
Daniel Mulvaney I know! Me too! Can you believe I’ve had this thing just shy of 3 years?? Love my spacers!
man that fading away shot @ 17:12 was STRONG. love it!
We run the Mint 400 every year in the Trick Truck, UTV PRO Turbo, and 6000 Trophy Lite classes. All run Titan spacers. None have ever had an issue and we run them hard. I hear people repeat what you've said about spacers often. I don't know anyone who has experienced a spacer failure when quality spacers were correctly used.
Just came across your channel, and I must say that you’ve got one hell of a 4 Runner. 👍. Great job.
Hands down our favorite channel to watch. Total inspiration to us all my friend.
Thanks Steve!
i really like the video editing here along with the music! I'm subscribing :)
Good GOD. Your Runner is a beast now! Talk about commanding the trails.
4Runner is looking official now! Looks great, congrats Jason!
I'm assuming the steps are the same for a 2015 Limited 4runner. I appreciate the video.
Looks amazing! With all that schteel, however, and the small bladder of the 4Runner, really wondering what gas mileage is going to be. It has to be 10mpg's hopefully not less!
Canesser it’s not that bad. Not even close. I was pleasantly surprised
Also. Thanks! :)
@@SwellRunner That's great to hear Jason. Looking forward to that video!
If he goes up a tire size without regearing, he will probably lose an additional 2mpg. If he gets MTs rather than ATs, it will also be another 1mpg or more loss. Tires make all the difference usually. Hopefully he stays realistic.
mtnbiker49 Yes I heard Lifestyle Overland changed gearing with his larger tires and made major difference.
Wished they had a shop here in Canada, would be too scared to do this 😭
Flannel & a fleece vest at the beginning. The Utah is starting to push the FL out...
He did a great job...love that bumper! I want one!
Yup 40k on my spacers (wheel adapters) always torque checked every tire rotation no probs.
Can you make a short clip of how much clearance you have with the new sweet upgrades!( Ex. Lowest point on the bottom, side skirts clearance to ground). Nice rig!💪👍👌
It looks like aftermarket bumpers block a lot of the airflow to the radiator, did you notice a rise in engine temp or have cooling system issues when it was hot outside?
I started watching this channel the other day and enjoy it very much. Your editing/vlogging skills are on point. I gotta admit, when I first got suggested one of your videos from a Maxx Powell video I was watching, I stereotyped you because of your interesting choice of glasses lol. I thought to myself "oh here's some poser hipster trying to cash in on the overlanding scene", but I'm glad I watched a couple videos because it's very entertaining content and you seem genuinely passionate about what you're doing.
I happened to notice my TRAIL logo in your old front bumper. Looks good!
These videos are incredibly well put together. You deserve more subs for these. Thanks for keeping me entertained
Awesome video Jason. Keep it coming man 👍
Awesome vid! That red ZR2 looks sweet!
KETO AND GEAR thanks! And it does!!
Waited 6 months for my covert bumper and still haven received it. I cancelled my order today. CBI's communication and customer service is abysmal.
I want this in aluminum but I have the front camera and apparently it doesn’t clear 🤷♂️
Wait, golly gee, didn’t I watch you last night just do your own install of a C4 bumper ? Wow 😲 you are fast, :). LOL, this is too cool as seems you must have picked up a great deal and a sponsor. Good on you ! ! See you in the next vid. I’m enjoying the ride. Wished you had an Xterra cus I probably could use some of your leftovers.
Do they make bumpers for the limited, i hate the plastic covers and the crappy clips that keep coming undone
As always Jason great job on the video. can wait to see more.
Good Job, Lots of luck with all the new equipment
Spacers are fine. Ppl run them on track cars all the time with no issues.
I love your 4Runner!! I wanna get ☝️ like yours. Keep up the great video
Bubby Chubby thank you!! It has taken some time but it’s turning out good!
Do what you want!!!
This guy is really into himself.
With this modification and extra added weight in front of the vehicle will your truck start running hotter?
Another can of worms,l see problems with wheel bearings wearing more often another can of worms.did they remove bottom fan shroud?
Jason, do you use Extreme LED brand light bars? If so, have you had any issues with quality, moisture inside of lens, do they provide good light in fog in amber mode? Thanks.
The debate of spacers or no spacers is mute. If you like it fine if not don't.
Where were the ending shots taken? Especially the drone pan out. Do you set some kind of autopilot mode or fly while driving? (Edit: Nevermind the location. Ouray, CO)
Love watching the transformation of your rig. Did you do anything to the the rear tail light, I saw they were removed during the skid plate install.
Jason, did you get that body mount checked yet? I'm curious if there was anything wrong or if that is how it works.
One day I will be able afford this vehicle.
About how much would all this (bumpers, skids, sliders etc) cost the average non-sponsored jo? 10k maybe more?
Daaaang dude. Cool up-grades!
Who’s saying spacer are bad? We run huge spacers in drifting and yeah I’ve see then are spacers bad videos but as long as they’re hub centric and quality then it’s all good. Not every mod can be 100% functional. A lot of modding vehicles is aesthetics and thats okay!
How much for the bumper and installment?
Where was the footage at the end from again. I couldn't make you out. Bumper looks great though!
ap1986 ouray
Jason, Nice new bumper. What did you do with the previous set-up? Oh, if I waited you said "watch next video".... patients, please.
So assume you have done the re-gearing now. How are you liking it, did you go 5.29 ?
did you upgrade your front coils to handle the added weight? if so which model?
So nice
im sorry if i missed it, what size tires are you running now? 4 runner looks awesome man!
Still just 280/70/17 - this is what I've ran since the beginning. Everyone seems to believe it's the most ideal size... Not exactly sure why.
@@SwellRunner okay cool that's what I thought thanks. How much did increasing from the stock size to those affect your fuel mileage and Power in the 4Runner? You don't really want to go any bigger than what you're at now without regearing besides you're running now is equivalent to a 33 by 11
Tim does the CBI bumper that a 10K warn winch?
Thank You
Terry
Looks real good Jason.👍🏻
You’re gonna have to also change your merch to reflect the new bumper 😜👍🏼
I know right! Got it all coming!
What do you do about the edge that is now bare from being cut with angle grinder. Won't it rust since theres no paint on it anymore?
Are you talking about the body mount chop? A new piece was welded on and it was all painted.
Where he is cutting at 6:26 in the video to be more specific. The edge is going to be bare even tho it’s small I would think it would rust since it would be bare. I was wondering if he painted it or put a clear coat on the edge to keep that from happening. Thanks for the reply.
@@jesseday5424 That's plastic
That explains why there’s no sparks 😂 I don’t have a 4Runner. Thanks 4 the replies.
Do you need the CBI skids to make this bumper fit ?
That ZR2.. 🤤
Very cool bumper !!!
i am interested in the cbi aluminum bumper, however, i heard complaints about poor customer service and longer than expected wait times. Should i consider hefty instead?
Eric Riddell If you bang it up you can’t fix it. If you bang up a steel one, you can bang it back.
When are you adding a snorkel?
Did you have a neck injury? You seem pretty stiff
I know you have probably answered this a lot but I am a newbie to 4Runners, just wondering what model and package you have on your Toyota?
chris gates 2016 trail
Looks good ,your gas milage must as good (bad) as my 60 series LandCruiser.
Did you go with the aluminum front bumper or steel?
what about a regear?
What was the LLOD. Is it a reference to last line of defense?
Another great youtuber 🤙🏽 “last line of defense “
haha. yea. That's his intro line.
Yea, love that guy. +last line of defense
You both produce great videos. The CBI upgrades your doing look great. Along with the Icon upgrades. The 4Runner will be great in the mountains. Keep the videos coming.
Awesome outstanding job thanks
What are you doing with your SSO bumper? For sale?
Do you still have your old bumper?
Is CBI really the best? What about Hefty ?
you going to regear soon? love the rig brotha
How much does this install cost in parts and labor?
did you buy the CBI front bumper powder coated black? If so what color does it come not powder coated black?
Yes they powder coated them. You can get the color matched to your truck as well. Or you can get bare steel if you want to handle it yourself
I have a 2018 white sr5 and I’d like to color match the bumper to be white. But I don’t see the options for different colors when I go to order it.
Hey Jason. Love your channel. Been following you for quite some time now with my family. Please get in touch with me. Would love to learn much more from you. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK. RIG IS AWESOME... TOYOTA FAMILY
4Runner bumper exist to be chopped up. 👍
Send me that old bumper ! Lol
super cool....
Love the look of that bumper. Super aggressive and sexy. Also, can I have your trailer?
Jason, do the larger tires when, and only when you are willing and able to do gears. Just my opinion but you would be foolish to otherwise.
Bumper looks awesome. Maybe I missed it but what company did your bumper install and where are they located?
NICE VID........WE KNOW MPG 9.5 TO 11.0....PLEASE ,PLEASE TURN THE WHITE IN ON THE KOS ....YOU DONT WANT TO CONTINUE LOOKING LIKE DORK-YOTA! YES CBI BEST GAME IN TOWN, FOR NOW. PELFREY WAS THE BEST!
I guess pelfrey couldn't manage their business. White walls out always! And mpg's are the same as before. 9.5 when towing though
@@SwellRunner I DONT PRETEND TO KNOW PELFREY.....THERE BUSINESS OR HOW THINGS WENT DOWN, LOOKS LIKE YOU DO!....GEARS JASON GEARS, 4.88 (29 spline pinion. Will only work with white in)......WOULD HELP YOU . K&N FLOW AND BANKS EXHAUST, MAYBE PICK-UP 2 OR 3MPG. WITH T-BACK . WHO KNOWS MAYBE MORE! HOW THEM W W WORK-EN OUT ON THOSE ROCKS? LOOKS GREAT IM SURE! . .....WHY NOT GANGSTER WHITES? GO FOR THAT MAX-DORK-YOTA LOOK! LOL BOOM BABY!
Are you selling your old c4 low pro bumper??.?
Hey I was wondering if you wanted to sell the old metal bumper I can pay for shipping please get back if so, thanks
Just take it easy when driving through any water.
Are you selling you old bumper ?
ARB for life... Haha
Are you selling the slee rock rails?
Ed Bowe Jr nope. They stayed on.
I'm sick of this sponsorship stuff. I miss when this channel was about adventure. Not it's advertisement
Hahaha. There is adventure!! A few videos ago we had a trip, we had a trip after this! Our series has always had a mix of videos, installs and information. This is only the third video that is sponsorship related. It’s all part of the story man. If I didn’t make these you’d be asking what happened down the line)
Chase - welcome to the new reality of youtube where its all about sponsorship by almost every youtuber because they see a gravy train for staying at home (ie working) making videos. The funny thing is that it was these same people that came to youtube because all other stuff was ad driven. Now, its like almost all videos have a hidden sponsorship deal making up a huge part of the video on top of the other commercials you have to watch. Complete BS! And, if you point that out, the standard come back lines are, "if I didn't do this, I couldn't do that. Or, if you don't like it, don't watch it." lol
The good news is that eventually, like everything else, a new platform will come along and people will migrate to that one and the whole process will start again.
Im just here for the install.... the guy is wearing four shirts.....inside!..... plus the magic underwear …..I imagine....uggg
Love all your vids but I wanna see you wheel that 4runner harder. You should try and hookup with LiteBrite youtube channel they push there jeep pretty hard and they are pretty close to you!
Thanks Brian! I have a trip to Ouray I'll be publishing next and a one day stint in Moab. I have a 4 night trip planned end of the month in southern California as well! Trips have been tough to get away for the last few months since the move since work has been so busy! But I've got some stuff coming up!
Please no. I can think of some far more suitable channels for him than LiteBrite.
Haha
@@ipdjbt yeah seems those guys go out of their way to hurt their JL. That's not Jason's style nor is it for most of us lol.
@@SwellRunner what part of SoCal?
