The only thing I would add would maybe be some wrap around protection at the corners.

I need a new rear bumper. Who makes it, what is the cost, and how do I contact them?

These were made by Rocktek Customz in Texas... Toyota of Dallas was carrying them... Jacque at TOD says they cant get ahold of them anymore as they dont return calls, emails, etc. And, the website says"under construction" and has been that way awhile now... WTF? Does anyone know these guys???
Here is a nice one made by Armorology, but it cost $1500 and they do not ship - in house only and they are in Colorado Springs...

It just totally sucks that no one can get ahold of them. I need a rear bumper because mine is bent because I backed my utility trailer too sharp out of my yard and jackknifed it...
I would rather have a bumper with a built in reciever like the Currie bumper that I bought for my Wrangler Unlimited. There is quite a bit more ground clearance under a bumper with a built-in receiver than with a bumper with a separate receiver.
It's a shame that there's more aftermarket support for a gas guzzling problem prone '06 Wrangler Unlimited than for a '06 Toyota Tacoma, despite how popular the Tacoma is.
I hope that somehow, someway, there will be a way to contact the company that makes those bumpers.
As far as the Armorology bumpers go, I've been through Colorado 3 times. But I certainly wouldn't want to have to go there AND spend $1500 for them to build me a rear bumper.
