Dissent offroad modular rear bumper.

[aaronrules]

When putting the front on make sure to add the LX grill guard! That thing makes the LX look very bad ass!

I'm not 100% on anything other than the bumper with all the lights. I've been trying to find more pictures of LX's with the front to see what I like. So far the configuration I liked the best is the one Ben had on his before he sold it.

Damn....I can't remember where I was on the list before, but #30 seems like it's going to be a little while! It's all good. Gives me time to get the front bumper here!

Tell me about it! That is a lot of rear bumpers to build, it's going to be a busy couple months once I get the bumper into full production but will do my best to get them together in a timely manner.

I'm hoping to have the bumper, tire swing out and hi-lift mount finalized by the end of the week.
I will keep you guys posted.

Once I have the final product together I will anounce the price and start contacting everyone on the list and working out payment.
Thank again for all the support and patients!

Finally looking like I will have the design finalized this weekend!
I'll let you guys know and post some pics of the final product if all goes as planed.
Here's a couple teaser pics of the tire carrier with the bolt on hi-lift mount, you will notice all the holes cut into the swing outs,
Not only do these cut weight but they give endless option for bolting on different accessories and lights.

YES!

Finally the bumper and tire swing out are complete!
I'm pretty excided about this bumper and think you all will be as well.
I drove it on some pretty rough roads today with very little movement and no rattles.
Like I said before the spare tire is completly ajustable but if the hi-lift is on there you will need to run the tire vertical.
Here are some pics of the final product

My goodness. You are one detailed person and would love to have one of your bumpers.

 

[benc]

The tube on the side was custom and will not be included on the bumpers. I may do an option for that in the future but not for now.

Are you throwing one of these at the raffle too or just the front? Maybe it'll be my lucky turn!
It looks fantastic Ben! I want one, just can't be now. Just pulled the trigger on the ARB fridge 20min ago so I'm broke again!

Yep, the winner will choose between the front or rear.

Alright then, if they pick me I choose the rear and I'll add the tire swing to the tab! If not, I'll have to order sometime in the hopefully not so distant future!
Awesome work man!

 

[aaronrules]

Man I can't wait!

There should be an option for double like. Awesome build.

That extra tube -- I would like to have one on mine if possible. Hopefully the near future will be when my build comes around

 

[ihadmail]

Holy cow! It looks like that thing is going to end up with 4-5x the amount of welding than the front took. Good thing I have a big spool of wire and plenty of gas left for my welder.

It is possible but difficult without the vehicle. There is not much room there so tough to offer until I get a good jig system.

What about offering it as a weld yourself add on?

 

[Julian Stead]

I would want a bumper to protect the bumper, I would rather scratch the truck than mark that piece of art. Well done.

Man I hope these come without need ANY welding as I don't own on. Plus I've never actually welded before.

They come welded, but not painted/powder coated from what I understand. I think Ihadmail is the only one getting a diy kit.
