Victory 4x4 Blitz Bumper for 3rd Gen

Has anybody installed this bumper on their Tacoma? How do you like it and any pictures?

 

I have one on order. I will post pic when nice installed.

 

Sounds good. Thanks.

 

Got the bumper in and installed. The install was straight forward. Helps to take the grill off.

 

Nice clean look the only concern I would see is that it looks like the winch fairlead is sitting too low. I don't know what type of off-roading you got, but here it's pretty much all mud and the first time you get stuck in the mud your rope fairlead would be buried in mud and the free spool openings would be caked with mud. Other than that and if you don't do any thick mud off-roading it looks great!

 

That looks nice. Which Warn winch did you end up using?

 

EVO 10-S

 

Did it dip your nose much?

 

Little less then a 1/4 inch. I have ome 887 springs. I added a spacer to level it back out.

 

Appreciate the response. Tire size?

 

Did your bumper come with the mesh to cover the hole if you don’t use a light bar? I’m in search of one for my second hand bumper since I don’t want a light bar.

 

I bought some mesh off Amazon. Looks exactly the same, but a fraction of the cost.

 

Do you still have a link to that floating around? I looked before posting here and only found 11x11 pieces for sale.

 

I used sandpaper and textured black spray paint. Matched the bumper perfectly.

Thanks!!!! Order placed

 

Have had my Blitz bumper on for 2+ years now. No issues with the TSS adaptive cruise control sensor. Bumper has held up while using the winch to pull myself over some large boulders while off-roading in Tillamook Forest, Oregon. Powder coat has also held up really well. I power wash the truck every other week and the powder coat still looks brand new.

 

Very good clean looking bumper i almost went with this exact one but ended up going with c4 low pro instead. No regrets whatsoever but I would’ve been as happy with victory 4x4 I believe.. I think they make the two best looking lo profile winch bumpers on the market. Lots of great American made bumper and armour companies though

 

I have it. Installed by myself. I had a transmission jack so that helped. Ordered unfinished and Raptor Lined it. Welds and fit and finish were first class.

 

Has the main part of the bumper, under the hoop, blocked your light bar behind the grill? I have a DD Stealth light bar and really like this bumper.

I'm torn between the Victory Blitz and the RCI Pike, very similar, but the Victory looks a bit better to me.
Do you think that it would be possible to install without a winch and not have to move the cooler back?
Not a big deal moving it, but I have no intentions installing a winch, so if I don't have to move it I won't.

Thanks!

 

I pulled the trigger on the aluminum Blitz today, can't wait to get my grubby hands on it!
