hFront High Clearance Hitch for 3rd Gen Toyota 4Runners with stock "fat lip" bumper 99-2002
--
Looking for a way to mount a front winch plate, carry an additional cargo basket, or just get a sturdy centered recovery point on the front of your 99-2002 3rd Gen 4Runner? Look no further! Next Venture Motorsports has you covered for your next adventure with this high clearance, frame mounted, front hitch!
CNC Laser Cut and CNC Press Formed Brackets tie a 3X3 formed crossmember with a 2" receiver into the front frame rails of your 4Runner while allowing you to retain the factory front bumper.
- Minimal ground clearance loss - everything sits up higher then the bottom of the factory tow hook.
- Brackets tie into the stock tow hook mounting locations, and bumper mounting locations.
- Installation requires removal of 4 of the existing bumper mounting nuts with a grinder or drill. 2 existing holes may need to be drilled out to larger size per side. The remainder of the installation can be completed with hand tools. Clearance in the bumper for the hitch can be completed using a utility knife.
- License plate can still be installed in factory location over bumper to hide receiver.
- All hardware (metric, Class 10.9 Steel and Standard Grade 8 where applicable) is included.
- Instructions can be viewed be clicking here.

parts inspired by the trail
Our team got into the game after rock crawling, wrenching, fabricating and being inspired to design and build parts for what we love to do: hit the trail.
what our customers are saying
★★★★★They invited me and my whole crew in for a tour of the facility on our way to Moab. These guys not only produce amazing armor for your Jeep, they are really good people. So, I’ve been running their rear diff skid for 9 months and it has easily held up to everything I’ve thrown at it.

★★★★★After this go around with Moab and Holy cross, the diff skids did their job and protected my Jeep. My rear aluminum bumper performed phenomenally on the trail!

★★★★★Can’t say enough about Dan and his ultra skilled team! Dan was able to get us in for a skidplate with UHMW & sliders for our JKUR. The fit, finish and quality are just out of this world! Can you say “stacked dimes”? Absolutely gorgeous welds…

★★★★★2 years later I'm writing this review. I've beaten the crap out of this thing hitting rocks, winching, draging it down obstacles, and now exposed to the Florida elements. The bumper looks like it did the day they sent it. You will not find a better company to work with that cares about their clients and their products!

★★★★★My rear Next Venture diff skid takes a beating! Best rear diff skid available. Well done!
Lee Bower
★★★★★Without a doubt, Next Venture Motorsports is my first stop for epic Jeep parts. Their JL aluminum front and rear featherweight bumpers are solidly built, easy enough to install, and crafted to perfection. I can't wait for more products for my 2 door JL!

★★★★★I like it because it lets you use factory fog lights if you want. They also have a featherweight aluminum option that doesn't have holes for fogs and is essentially a stubby bumper. I am very pleased with all of their stuff. [JL/JT Adventure Series Bumper]
