Dissent offroad aluminum front bumper!

[RootMeanSqr]

Anyone have a front bumper license plate solution??

I used one of these, works great. Just make sure your license plate screws don't protrude through the back of the mounting plate.
Will try to get a better pic later, but doesn't obstruct the light bar or the winch, unless you do a pull with a pretty good upward angle.

Anyone know if the @benc is making the LC or LX bull bars out of aluminum yet? Does anyone know how much the they weigh?

Yes they still do and based off the email I received from them about a month ago, lead time is 12-16 weeks for the aluminum front bar. And I inquired about my Lx.

Thanks for the reply. Ben's website has a comment that says roof racks and front bumpers have a longer lead time, does that mean rear bumpers have a shorter lead time?

That I cannot speak for, sorry. But Dissent’s rear bumper has grown on me already esp with the tire carrier and the option to put a double 4-gallon rotopax on the other side (I don’t have to worry about buying the expensive LRA tank). But man, every time I see the ARB rear bar w/o the swing outs, just plain and clean, I get confused all over again which one to go for

Really happy with mine. Going to weigh the stuff I took off (plastic bumper + metal support bar) to see actual difference - I suspect < 15lbs gain.

Is that the license plate bracket that Ben sells?

Yes

If you are running a winch the bracket from Ben is great as it flips up and down to allow access to the winch!

Just finished installing mine with a 12k winch. It looks like the license plate cover now sits vertical instead of an angled in when the license place is down. Only had to crank my torsion bar bolts 1 turn to make up for the bumper/winch.
