LōD Offroad
Caught the Bug
Really Like the look of the new front bumpers! But i cant help but notice the odd similarities between these and the Poison spyder Brawler Lite series front bumpers :thinking:
I actually bought 2 of PS front bumpers so the fact that these look similar and the rumor about Chinese steel in Poison spyder products now makes me really want that stubby with the stinger.
And i Ran the LoD sig series full width rear bumper on my last JK and i freaking loved that thing! I would totally by another one and i love the look of the new one, it will for sure go on my list of wants! And love that it actually attaches to the tail gate, i wasnt a fan of that tiny U bolt latch holding back the weight of a 37, jerry can, high lift, etc, I had it snap on me on a trail swing open past the stop and dent my corner with my own tire :doh: But sounds like the new one is going to be better and hopefully the mount to the tailgate is strong enough to hold back the weight of the spare and accessories.
One question about that rear bumper though, The sig series full width was amazing but it was HEAVY as HELL is the new one any lighter?
I can assure you that we get our steel right out of Northern Indiana from the Steel mills up there. We actually buy it in 44,000 lb coils and have it stretch leveled and cut into sheets for our lasers, and we only use pickled and oiled steel in our manufacturing process. We designed these to have some aggressive lines, excellent protection, and great approach and departure angles. We even designed the Fog light bezels on the front and rear to resist collecting mud and water by laser cutting drain slots in them, that way you can wash out any mud or salt. We posted weights on our site, The Destroyer series bumpers are a bit slimmer than our signature series, so yes they do weigh less, we took that in to consideration when designing these as well. We painstakingly designed these to be the absolute best bumpers on the market, from fit and finish, to functionality, to the amount of accessories available for them, and the adjust-ability of all of the accessories. Our D-Ring mounts are even dual purpose, as we are currently making adapters for tow bars for them, and a Hi-lift Jack safety lifting adapter that we will be releasing here soon.
