Toyota Tacoma High Clearance Rear Bumper / 2nd Gen / 2005-2015

Upgrade your 2005–2015 Toyota Tacoma with the DRT Fabrication High Clearance Rear Bumper — engineered to maximize departure angle, strength, and recovery functionality.

Unlike bulky factory bumpers, this design is tucked tight to the tailgate with an overall height of about 4.5”, giving you over 6.5” of additional ground clearance while weighing only 120 lbs. It’s one of the most clearance-focused bumpers on the market.

The bumper features two recessed Baja Designs S2 flush-mount light pockets with CNC-machined bezels, integrated recovery points tied directly into the chassis, and gusseted frame reinforcement for maximum strength. Recovery points are constructed from 3/8” frame mounts with 1/4” steel reinforcement on both sides, creating 7/8” thick shackle mountsbuilt to handle real-world recovery.

Additional details include a gusseted license plate mount supporting a laser-cut hitch tube (not tow-rated), chain attachment points, a relocated trailer plug harness, and high-clearance sides gusseted to the frame. A flip-up license plate bracket with included LED lights is also provided.

This bumper is designed for serious off-road use, blending aggressive styling, protection, and performance in one package.
