I am looking for options for a rear tire carrier for the 470. Any thoughts on the victory 4x4? what else is out there that is ready to bolt on?
 
Do you want a tire carrier or a bumper, or a bumper with a tire carrier? There are lots of options out there.

I purchased a victory strike rear bumper last spring. I am not thrilled about how it fits to the body panels. There is a bigger gap near the front (1 1/4 inch) than the rear (3/4 inch) and the bumper is pushed over about an inch further to the driver side so it looks bad.



Besides that I have low confidence in the welds between the bumper and the hitch so now scared to tow anything heavy

They are supposed to be making me some new brackets which might help. It’s been a few months though so not holding my breath… I expect a body shop tab before it’s done.

One more thing to note, the rear bumper is a bolt on but the air compressor for rear air suspension is in the way of the driver side bracket. Expect to remove or modify the air compressor location if you want to properly install the victory strike bumper on the GX 470. Their installation video makes it look super easy but that part was tricky and took some time to figure out
 
@VSPro9 , I just came across the same business last night. They are very responsive to any questions and have great looking products at prices that make sense. Hope all goes well with the new gear.

I was just able to get in on the pre production order, so im pretty pumped about that. lead time is long but i knew that going in. eventually ill probably get their hybrid front bumper as well, the price point is just too good!
 
Dissent Off-road! we are just announcing our GX 470 rear bumper program, we are scheduled to finish the project in January and start production.

Rear bumper will support dual swings and all four of our standard Land Crusier swing arms carry over (tire carrier, tray table, triple jerry can holder, large vertical accessory panels)

Same swing arms will work on the gx rear:

Call or email Expedition One and ask them about their GX470 rear bumper. They said earlier this year they were working on one with the same opening design as the FJ which I have and love. I don’t care for swing outs that I have to first unlatch and open before getting to the rear door. But that’s just me.

If Expedition One ever gets the GX bumper for sale, I will be getting one.
 
That's awesome to see a company making a product at a reasonable price! I see too many vendors pricing items at twice their value and shrugging their shoulders and saying, "materials are too expensive".
That’s what drew me too it. I wanted something that carried my tires for a reasonable price
 
Any update on this? A rear tube bumper priced like that 4R one would be sweet
i ordered one. lead time is silly. should be here around late march early april
 
Cool- looking forward to the feedback. Hope all is good.
Company seems to have a excellent reputation, they’re communicating very well, so far so good.
 
i think i follow them on insta but i havent talked to anyone with one. pretty straightforward design though.
 
Dope! Thank you for confirming. Should be an awesome bumper for ya.

take it they just don’t have the rear on their site yet?
