Steelcraft Bumpers for Toyota Tundra

Three Front Bumpers, One Year Band

All three Steelcraft front bumpers cover the 2014-2021 Tundra, so they compete on features alone. What changes is what each one keeps from the factory truck, and what it adds.

The Fortis is the open one. No guard, just a low face of 6-gauge plate. Gauge runs like shotguns, not inches: the lower the number, the heavier the metal. At 134 pounds, it carries D-ring shackle mounts. The center cut fits most 20-inch double-row light bars, and four 3-inch cubes sit on pedestals. It also costs the least of the three. Two trades come with it: the factory tow hooks do not go back on, and Steelcraft notes that some installs need cutting. Run the Fortis when shackle points and light mounts cover your needs, and a guard would just be weight.

The Elevation is for the Tundra that still drives downtown every day, tech intact. Steel tubes wrap the headlights, mesh shields the grille, and the bumper under them keeps your factory tow hooks and fog lights in place. It works with adaptive cruise control, the radar that paces traffic for you, and leaves openings for the parking sensors. A mesh section over the Toyota emblem comes out, so the parking camera behind it keeps its sight line. One hard exclusion: it does not fit the TRD Pro with Toyota Safety Sense and fog lights.

The HD Replacement carries the same kind of full guard on a diamond-plate base, thick tube above, semi-gloss black instead of matte. The piece that sets it apart sits low in the center, a receiver hitch built into the bumper. A recovery shackle or a hitch step slides straight in. Tow hooks and fog lights stay, and the emblem panel comes out the same way for the camera. If gear should ride on your front end, this is the socket for it.

Two notes cover the whole trio. None of these holds a winch; pulling power here means shackle points or the front receiver, nothing more. And all three leave room for the factory parking sensors. On the receiver front, Steelcraft warns it cannot promise readings will match the factory bumper.

Two Rear Bumpers: One Serves the Bed, One Serves the Pull

The rear pair splits by what you do at the tailgate, and both bumpers fit the 2014-2021 trucks.

Matching the front in 6-gauge steel, the Fortis rear brings D-ring shackle mounts and pedestals ready for 3-inch cube reverse lights. Your factory hitch stays put behind it, and the license plate stays where Toyota mounted it. Parking sensors and blind-spot sensors still work. Strap work, trailer chores, recovery points at both ends of the truck: that is this bumper's lane.

The HD Elevation rear has a different job. Steps at both corners give your boots somewhere to land when you load the bed, and a mount waits for a 2-inch LED reverse light. It wraps the factory hitch and keeps the plate lights. At about 236 pounds of flat steel, it is a two-person hang. One gate decides between the two rears: blind-spot warning and rear cross-traffic alert survive only on the Fortis rear. A truck running those systems skips the steps.

The Year Check Is Short

Anything 2014 through 2021: every bumper series on this page fits, front and rear. One piece reaches further back. The Fortis front also covers 2007-2013 trucks, with a check first. Steelcraft excludes the versions that wore Toyota's one-piece plastic bumper. Look at what your truck carries now before ordering. There is no Steelcraft rear here for those older years. Toyota rebuilt the Tundra from the frame up for 2022. Nothing on this page fits that truck or anything newer.

Install runs the same across the line. Steelcraft's own instructions put the job at three to five hours of bolt-on work. The steel is heavy enough that a second pair of arms is not optional. Hardware comes in the box. Every bumper here gets dipped in e-coat before the powder goes on, a step Steelcraft pioneered among aftermarket bumper makers. The powder is the look; the dip underneath is the rust insurance. BumperStock carries the line as an authorized Steelcraft dealer. Shipping to any US address costs you nothing, and the fit is guaranteed to your truck. To weigh Steelcraft against every other brand we fit to this truck, open the Toyota Tundra bumpers page.
