Cleanest way to light up the hatch.

​The 5th Gen 4Runner mounts for KC Cyclones are a permanent fixture in the shop. Each light puts out 600 lumens of flood—giving you a massive 1,200 lumen work area right where you need it.

​This video shows the Builders Series in action, which I have powered off my secondary battery through an Auxbeam panel. It’s the best way to get light for camp without worrying about power management or killing your starting battery.

​Available in both Plug & Play and Builders Series at the link in my bio.

Better mounts. Brighter trails.

We don't just print parts; we solve problems. These KC Cyclone mounts were born out of a need for better camp lighting that doesn't look like an afterthought. High-temp resistant, rugged, and ready for whatever the trail throws at you.

Inspired by adventure and forged in filament.

​The journey began as 4RNRMATT, but the path is evolving. Switchback Foundry Co. represents that evolution—taking the same great products and turning them into something more.

​Expect more innovation and even more grit. The focus remains on building tougher, smarter accessories that are ready for the trail.

​Thanks for being part of the journey. This is just the first turn of an epic adventure.

​Now it gets real.

​Specs that matter: 600 lumens, IP68 waterproof, and a tiny 0.53" depth. The KC Cyclone V2 is the gold standard for accessory lighting because it’s a tank. It's rugged enough to be used as a rock light, but versatile enough for almost any application.

​These are durable enough to outlast most other LED options on the market. They can take a serious beating on the trail and just keep on going, which make them a great option for all applications...even as cargo lighting.

​Beyond the 5W efficiency, the modularity is what wins. The lenses are fully interchangeable, so you can swap colors depending on the task. This is the primary light I design for because it just works and—unlike a lot of high-end lighting—it doesn’t break the bank.

​Consider this a little sneak peek of what’s coming next. Final design will be that primo black as always.

​The original hatch lighting solution.

​I’ve been making these KC Cyclone hatch mounts for years because let’s face it—the factory cargo lights just don't cut it for camp life. These drop right into the rear hatch handle pockets to turn the back of your rig into a full-on workspace.

​One Cyclone V2 puts out 600 raw lumens of flood light, meaning you’re getting over 10x the output of those dim factory bulbs right where you need it most.

​Tried, tested, and still the cleanest way to light up your tailgate.

Working on an updated mounting solution for the KC Cyclone lights. I’m dialing in the tolerances to make sure these stay put, no matter how rough the trail gets.

​What’s the one spot you’ve been wanting to mount a Cyclone but haven't found a good bracket for? Let me know.

​If you know, you know. 🤫

​I gutted the overhead console to mock up a new addition to the lineup. It’s been a long time coming, but I’m finally getting the fitment dialed.

​Any guesses on what I'm cooking up?

Polymer has its limits—stainless steel doesn’t.

​I integrated a stainless steel core into the new design for one reason: zero flex. It’s not just about the weight; it’s about creating a shifter that’s as rigid and durable as the rest of your rig.

​Built using genuine Vans Cult waffle grips for that iconic, classic look on a setup that won’t break the bank.

...and they come in different colors, too.

From CAD to the build plate. 🤙

​The next addition to the lineup is officially in the works. I’m dialing in the prototypes on the MK4S to make sure this is trail-ready before I drop it in the shop.

​This one has been highly requested. Any guesses what I’m working on?

​If it’s worth doing, it’s worth over-engineering.

​I’ve been running the original 3D-printed version of these overhead handles in my personal rig for over 3 years without a single issue. But when it comes to a component that takes a lot of force and requires zero room for failure, I knew it was time to address the weak points.

​I’m moving to a beefier, reinforced internal hardware system. It’s an "OEM-plus" upgrade I designed to handle the heavy-handed passengers and the roughest trails.

​Testing is done. Production is humming. I’ll be dropping these on the site very soon—stay tuned.
