Will the skids work with a 1” diff drop kit? My factory ones do as the kit included a couple longer bolts and a spacer for one of the skid plates, but I’d like something stronger
 
looks really nice and good to have options for the LC200.

I'll be the first to say I don't have much experience with armor on LC's
But I noticed for the dissent and the victory...is the reasoning to make the design have a straight horizontal lower line for more clearance? ease of manufacture?

I ask because it seems to leave the muffler/resonator exposed.
And does that make the muffler/resonator the first point of contact when coming off a step or does the bumper contact first?

Some of the other manufacturers seems to slope the lower edge so that is is a upsweep rather then a straight horizontal line.

Also any medium/long term use of V4x4 molle panel on the center console? I am considering it for my handheld and leatherman. Just was wondering if the screws in plastics were holding up? If I do get it I may just reinforce it by using some metal brackets on the inside and nuts and bolts instead of screws...

PS also your website does not include the rear bumper when you filter for LC and 08-21

Most of us cut the resonator off. Zero negative (or positive) affects after doing so.

I have had the V4x4 center console molle for almost a year now on my 2018 LC. It has been great and have not seen any loosening of the supplied hardware since installing. I keep o light warrior and tourniquet on the passenger side all the time so a handheld and leather man should be fine.

Ahhh got it.

Just seen a lot of pics with bumpers and resonators too.

I think it does look a little nicer with the upswept design and it follows the body lines a bit better but now i can see the utility of chopping the resonator and bringing it out closer to the wheel well.
 
Could we see some more photos of the strike front bumper with no hoops on a 200 series? It looks great, and I would love a photo-heavy review from someone who has it installed on their truck. Thanks!
 
Saw that. Thanks.
There are only a couple of no-hoop pictures of a 200-series. I was asking for a Mud member to do a review.

I think they just started taking orders and have a manufacturing and delivery lead time (60-90 days for bumpers). I don't suspect that there are other bumpers with 'mud members in the field yet for people to review.

A couple? Maybe I’m misunderstanding, but the first 8 pictures on the link are all no hoop on a 200 series.
 
Got some great looking products. Any mud members got bumpers and skids?
With lead times where they are, we haven't shipped any Skids, bumpers or sliders yet. We do have a lot of order for them though. We have shipped quite a few roof racks and molle panels.

Excited to see new options out there.
 
Any chance for a “damn” console mount for the LC 200? Saw your dash accessory mount install video on you tube and couldn’t help but think how sweet it would be to have one of those for the 200! I use your console molle panels and have really liked them. An accessory dash mount would complement those well! Just a thought as I can’t seem to find any good rail type mounting solutions for the 200. I really like the 67 designs products but they don’t have a solution for the 200.

I saw that 4Runner dash mount from Victory, looks sharp, would be cool if they made one for the 200. I used to have an ICS dash mount on my 4Runner, I've reached out to ICS about making one for the 200. They asked me to remove that speaker cover on the dash and send them pics. I haven't heard back but it sounded like they were planning to develop one at some point.

I think I was one of the first to order the Victory rear bumper, literally placed my order with an hour or two after the email came out that they were now on sale on black Friday. Waiting patiently. I had the Victory rear bumper on my 4Runner so I have all the swing outs and attachments already that will fit this bumper as well.

Sweet. Thanks for the info! I want to wait for the right solution for long term use. Trying to be more patient as I get older.
