I'm assuming you don't quote a tow rating for this bumper as most don't go through the process to get an official number. But roughly speaking, will this maintain the stock tow rating?

EDIT
Just read the actual listing:

We produce these products in a low volume compared to the OEMs or aftermarket receiver hitch companies. As such, it's not feasible for us to get this product tested against SAE J684 specifications or design it meet specific DOT or FMCSA regulations. So while we try to over-engineer our products with the loads of the factory vehicle capacity in mind; towing a trailer on public highways is at your own risk and we make no claims on the legality or viability of doing so. We cannot offer any recommendations on capacity beyond this. If the ratings of the factory receiver hitch are important to you, we would recommend choosing a bumper that keeps that in place.

Yeah, legal speak. I wish we had a way to rate these low volume.
 
We had a similar hitch on our 03. Under the bumper cover, the cross-member is identical to the LX. This, of course, could have changed at some point in the model years. It looks like the factory rates the OEM hidden hitch at 5000lbs max so the under-bumper hitches were used for more capacity.

Still researching.

That style rear wind deflector on your cruiser is discontinued and in high demand. Can you replicate that in aluminum and make a profit selling them @ $200.00 bucks a pop?
 
So dumb question... is the receiver integrated into the bumper or is it something that can be removed for an existing aftermarket?

Is there really that much interested in them? We can certainly look into it.

It's integrated.
 
How about some molle panels for the back of the driver and passenger seats, like the center console molle panels? Not like the fabric style ones that flex and bend. Ridged ones would be great.

You could try these. They are fantastic.

Tactical Gear & Backpack Insert | Vehicle Rifle Racks

On another note, I am close to pulling the trigger on a front bumper for my 06 LC. Do i go with bars or no bars?!?!

Just an opinion... are you in an area where animal stiles are common? If so then the bars could save your bacon. Also, some bars offer more utilitarian space for mounting lighting and accessories. If you are mostly crawling and animal strikes are not as common then the no bar look is much cleaner and lighter.

Many of these have fallen victim to tree branches on tight trails in the east and Midwest. I know some people that can’t stand for not replacing them but given the vulnerability of the product and location I would suggest something much more robust both from the material and mounting hardware. Seriously, they come off A LOT
 
Yes, in the description of this product we state, " These currently only fit models with the downward grab handle as pictured in our product photos. If you have an outward-facing handle (earlier Land Cruiser models,) these panels will not mount at this time."

We need to find an earlier 100 in the area to update this product.
The product has been updated and both brackets are included now 👍

Also working on instructions for the Strike front bumper on the LX. Fits fine, just need to walk people through losing turn signals. Recommending dual function backlit LED lights like the ones from RaceSport or Rigid Radiance. I think this is a pretty easy move as opposed to buying the housings to make the running lights dual function or dremeling them up to accept 3157 sockets.

Looks great. Thinking of doing the same.
On the attic shelf, what did you do there.
