Dissent offroad 200 series offerings. (3 Viewers)

Randomly crapping all over a vendor's products in that vendor's dedicated thread is (at the absolute minimum) rude and in poor form. If this was a general thread comparing different bumpers, by all means, state your mind, but what was posted earlier is simply not cool.

For what little it's worth, I think Dissent's offerings are fantastic. If I wanted a bumper right now, that is the only option I'd consider.

Agree. I didn’t even realize this was his thread until you just pointed it out ☹ His other products look good, just not a fan of his front bumper

I’m definitely doing that. I read on here the sound difference is very minimal but that canister is a eyesore

Yeah, it doesn’t add much additional noise. You can hear it outside the cabin a little, but inside it’s pretty much the same.

What’s the best way to finish it off?
Weld on a slightly downturn tip? Or add piping to the edge of the bumper like OEM?

For those who are interested in Dissents offerings, recently got the Rear bumper done. I opted for the traditional jerry can holder on passenger side. Also had them re wire the rear camera. Overall very happy with how it turned out.

Where’d you find the 22” Rock Warrior?!

I gotta be honest, with those Trax bolted down like that requiring a wrench to get them off and use them, I'd be contantaly thinking "Do I really wanna go down that road? I might have to get the toolset out and get the Trax down."

I know that easier options would make it easier to get them stolen but I'm just thinking I'd really hate to deal with that in the off-chance I, or someone else, gets stuck. Perhaps other folks on here have a better option? Not trying to throw shade. Love your truck and rack as well.

they’ll be getting replaced with knobs eventually. No shade at all. I’ll go for secure and not having dirty items inside the truck at the expense of having to take 4 nuts off. What is it, less than 30 seconds a nut? If someone is stuck e Pugh to warrant the tracks, you usually aren’t in a hurry as it is.

on my last vehicle I had the maxtrax branded mountingbolts, a nice solution for about $60.

One thing we did on rally cars for stuff that needed to remove fairly quickly but also need to be mounted securely is weld thin rod onto a nut in a v shape to make easy to remove wing nut type fasteners. You don't need a tool to remove them. Something like that would work great here.

Like this:

I just use regular wing nuts when I mount mine on the rack. Easy on, easy off. You can always secure them with a locking cable.

Honestly though, I rarely mount them on the rack anymore. I have found that the few times I have needed them were among the least convenient times to have to access the roof rack.

Yeah, I just had an extension added on and turned down. You definitely want to be careful not to burn up any wiring nearby, but a small down facing angle should do the trick.

Thanks for the tip. Would you happen to have a pic of how it all looks like from the cutoff line and on?

Let’s get this thread back on track with some new lc200 products! Here is our New full replacement bumper in the works for the 16+! We will have a full bull bar option for this one as well.

Is there any chance you'll be making this for the 08? This is spectacular!

 

[bemerritt]

Looks awesome Ben. How different is the profile of the bumper from the standard one you have been making? The lines seem slightly different.

That's the rack I've been waiting for to put on my Silver 2013 LC200. Please keep us posted on availability!

It's been 18 months since I posted that - any update on the availability of the roof rack? All I see on the site is for 100 series

It is possible if enough interest

Thanks! Yes, this was a full redesign. We are keeping the original around though.

Working on it! Unfortunately we haven’t been able to get caught up enough yet but I think we are close.

Here she is all coated! This one is not 100% perfect but the next one should be. Should have the bull bar completed in the next couple weeks.
