Considering an aftermarket rear bumper for my 05 LX470. Have been looking at all of the options. My biggest concern is if they rattle alot? Had one on a jeep that was noisy but it was a jeep. The 100 is nice and quiet and would like to keep it that way if I can. Let me know what you have and if it is quiet. Thanks in advance!
 
Arb on front. Slee on rear.
Absolutely quiet. No noise from either one.
 
No noise at all with front and rear. Adding them to our other cruiser right now. Will post pics when it is complete.

Dissent rear, very quiet.
 
ARB front & rear. Solid and quiet.
 
Arb front, slee rear both are dead quiet.
 
BIO rear, also perfectly silent.

...Unless you don't strap down the Hi-Lift handle. Rattles like a banshee chicken back there, even with the rubber handle isolator. A zip tie seems to work.
 
BIO rear - zero noise at all at any point. The swingouts are the potential noise-maker, but mine are extremely precise and have never made noise.

It's a feat of design and fabrication how accurate Mike can make those bumpers. I've been very pleased.

If you don't have things properly shimmed or adjusted/installed you could get a rattling bumper, but with proper install, I can't imagine any of the popular choices making any noise.
 
About 1/4” clearance. Id be more comfortable with 1/2-3/4”
