    Hey man, we’re you ever able to figure out instructions to put bunker together or installation guidelines?

    Judging from the first 4 Amazon reviews it really doesn t come with instructions. Looks for a job for someone mechanically inclined to go for it, or have a shop do it.

    Others like me may be still searching for the instructions. I also found this bumper under the DB8 brand name. The purchase price for this bumper was comparable to replacing the original plastic bumper (Deer strike) and the insurance company was fine with putting the money towards a steel bumper instead of plastic.

    Just got it installed, looks good. Minor details, the upper brackets with the blind nuts supplied with the bumper, can not be installed on an 08 tundra without chopping chunks out of the cross body frame, so they didn't get installed. Mounting brackets on one side are nicely lined up, and on the other it is welded on 3/8 low and crooked. Luckily it didn't matter to the mounting, and is hidden by the time everything is installed, so all in all it's good enough.
