Rough Stuff Metal Front Bumper for RC4WD Trail Finder 2 (Standard)

RC4WD ROUGH STUFF METAL FRONT BUMPER FOR TRAIL FINDER 2 – STANDARD

The RC4WD Rough Stuff Metal Front Bumper (VVV-C0206) is a scale-focused front bumper for the Trail Finder 2 platform, built around a mixed-material structure that combines molded ABS detail with stainless-steel bumper hardware and stainless anti-slip surfaces. The assembly is finished in black powder coat and designed to give the TF2 a more realistic full-size off-road front-end appearance while providing a solid mounting structure for scale accessories such as a compact winch and auxiliary lighting.

MIXED-MATERIAL SCALE CONSTRUCTION

RC4WD specifies ABS injection-molded components together with a stainless-steel bumper and stainless-steel anti-slip detail. The black powder-coated finish helps the metal components resist corrosion while giving the bumper the subdued utility-truck finish expected on a scale crawler.

WHY THE 187MM WIDTH MATTERS

At 187mm wide, the bumper is proportioned to visually span the TF2 / Mojave II front end rather than looking like a narrow universal crawler bumper. That broader profile improves scale presentation and gives the front body a more finished, full-size truck appearance while maintaining a compact 80mm front-to-rear dimension.

WINCH-READY SCALE APPLICATION

RC4WD shows this bumper installed with the 1/10 Mini Warn 9.5cti Winch. That makes the bumper especially useful for recovery-themed builds where the front end needs to look functional rather than decorative. Always confirm winch hardware and mounting screw length before final assembly.

INSTALLED ON TRAIL FINDER 2 / MOJAVE II

The application photos show how the bumper sits beneath the Mojave II front grille and bodywork. The low, wide profile complements the TF2 without overpowering the scale body, while the metal construction adds meaningful mass to the front of the chassis.

OPTIONAL LIGHTING & RECOVERY ACCESSORIES

RC4WD lists several compatible auxiliary-light options around the Rough Stuff bumper platform, including Rally 3000 Hella lights, round and square IPF lights, LED-equipped variants, and the Mini Warn 9.5cti winch. These accessories are not included, but they make the bumper a strong foundation for a period-correct trail / expedition front end.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

• 1x Rough Stuff Metal Front Bumper for RC4WD Trail Finder 2 – Standard

REPLACEMENT / INSTALLATION HARDWARE

• 2x M3 x 8mm FHCS – Black
• 2x M2 x 3mm BHSC – Black
• 4x M1 x 3mm Phillips Head Machine Screws – Black
• 4x M1 Regular Nuts – Silver

INSTALLATION NOTES

Before tightening the bumper, verify body and grille clearance, chassis mounting alignment, steering clearance, and any winch or light wiring route. On hard-body TF2 builds, small bumper-position changes can have a noticeable effect on approach angle and front-body alignment, so test-fit everything with the suspension loaded at normal ride height.

BEST USE CASES

• Trail Finder 2 / Mojave II scale crawler builds
• Period-style recovery and expedition trucks
• Builders adding a Mini Warn winch
• Scale builds using Hella or IPF auxiliary lighting
• Upgrading from a lightweight or generic plastic front bumper

GASHEAD RC NOTE: The appeal here is the combination of correct TF2 proportions, real stainless-steel structure, and the ability to build a complete recovery-style front end around it. This is a bumper that looks right on a Mojave II and gives you a proper platform for winch and lighting details instead of just filling the space under the grille.
