EDITED- LX470 Dissent Off-Road Modular Rear Bumper for Landcruiser and LX 470 - Finished + Reveal

Описание: ************ EDITED AT 19:59 IMPORTANT !!!!! ******

Ben sent me a message last week and asked me to correct a mistake that exist in this video on the torque setting of the four 7/16th bolts that attach the swingarms to the base bumper. They should be torqued at 52 ft/lb NOT 95 ft/lb as I mention it in the video. PLEASE make note of this.

I apologize for the crude way of informing my subscribers or future viewers but Youtube doesn't allow to upload edited videos without losing your view counts.
********************************************


in this last video of the series on the complete build of the Dissent Off-Road No Cut Modular Rear Bumper for the Landcruisers 100 series and Lexus LX 470, I finish assembling the swing arms and give a lot of details and some great time saving tips on the entire process. I also mount the tire carrier and jerry can holder accessories onto each swing arms and finally do a big reveal of the completed bumper.

The bumper is massively stout and will NOT disappoint you. Ben, the owner of Dissent Off-Road and his team do an amazing job at putting out a fantastic product, hand built right here in the USA and with an attention to details that will amaze you.

I chose the all steel bumper however some parts of the accessories are made of top grade aluminum for weight saving. The black powder coating is equally impressive and the entire bumper and accessories arrived extremely well packed without a single scratch.

My options for this bumper were

Rear base bumper (steel)
Tire carrier with aluminum riser and flip up table
Basket and tray accessory mount (require for the jerry can holder) include the secondary hitch receiver for mounting bike racks!
3 Jerry can basket
Accessory swing arms (needed if you want 2 swing arms)
Hi-lift mount
