99 Hilux Nudge Bar Drawing?

[PapaDragon]

Hi guys

Long shot here, does anyone have a drawing for a 99 4X4 DC Hilux? Mine was damaged in an accident, and nothing available off the shelf, so need to get made up..
Thanks

The nudge bar specifically? No.

I do have a drawing for a steel bumper for one if you want that

This is a much better idea than the Nudge Bar!

Hi there

I tried adding you on whatsapp, but it says that number isn't on whatsapp.

Anyway here is a link to the dxf files: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... sp=sharing

There are two support brackets out of 10 mm mild steel that form the main
attachment points of the bumper, and two right angle brackets also out of
10mm mild steel that bolt to the chassis rails. Check the slotted hole
spacing on the right angle brackets, I think I might have measured the hole
spacing on the bottom of the chassis rails incorrectly - I remember having
to widen the slots a bit.

Then the main bumper is 2 mm steel, so the bend radius is also 2 mm. There
is also a pattern for an internal bracket/stiffener - I ended up not
getting those cut, I made some to fit the bumper after I'd welded it up,
one in the centre and one on either end.

2 mm might seem a bit thin, but the bumper is very stiff because of all the
bends, I can stand on the corner with no deflection.
