New Southern Style Speed Rear Bumper Prototype Installed

Can we do a second receiver for a bike rack? Would be nice to have my 1upusa bike rack and pull the SeaDoo.
Reach out to Kevin from southern style Im sure he can make you something custom

Will the frame cut for the high hitch option be the same as the Lexus 460 instructions on your website, or are we slicing in half? Thank you

I think earlier in this post i showed the cut but i believe its the same as the gx so you dont have to cut straight through it
 
[MENTION=109511]tykkor[/MENTION]- Here's the ladder swingout on the SSO GX470. I'm sure the 4runner ladder swingout will look just like it.

From what I know, yes there will be a license plate mount and light included.

[MENTION=123371]fargo4x4[/MENTION] I saw some photos in the group buy thread where you have liftgate struts attached to both swing arms. Does this bumper come with that feature?

Any consideration of doing a Rotopax swing out instead of a jerry can?

I want the same thing. That's why I'm going with the ladder swing out. I'm going to figure out a way to mount Rotopax to the ladder.

Yes we'll offer the rotopax mount alone or with the ladder on a hinge so that the ladder is still usable even with your rotopax mounted.
 
I would like to know about this to. Precut holes in the corners for the flush mount Rigid SRQ or SRM would be great.

Exact lights I was thinking of.

Also we provide all new grade 10.9 hardware but it is zinc plated for corrosion resistance, not stainless.

Hey guys, just went through all the pages on this and Fargo's build thread, really tempted pull the trigger in the GB..

Just a few questions I couldn't find the answers to:

1- Any idea on the weight of the bumper? [MENTION=123371]fargo4x4[/MENTION] How does the ride feel with those OME 898s and your rear bumper setup so far? Am trying to shoot for +0-1" rear height and retain the softish OEM ride characteristics..

2- Any pics on the "Passenger Side Swing Arm Fold Down Camp Table" setup? Will this be available as an option in the Group Buy?

3- Any pics on the Ladder + swing away Rotopax mount setup?

4- Would the bolt-on hitch match the OEM 500lb tongue rating? Asking as I occasionally use a hitch cargo carrier on longer trips.

By the time I order and get this to where I am, changing my mind wouldn't be an easy option.. so any additional pics/ info would be greatly appreciated!!
 
I think the side ladder is cool; this looks great! I like how you're trying to figure out the license plate/camera situation before it gets released.

The end caps on the swing arms closest to the taillights look like they may have room for an antenna mount. This would be a nice way to get the clamp on mounts off the hatch. Thoughts? [MENTION=110183]SouthernSS[/MENTION] [MENTION=123371]fargo4x4[/MENTION]

1.) exact weight is unknown buts it is very similar to the southern style lexus rear bumper weight w/add ons

but if i had to guess less then 235 more then 175 lol

2.) & 3.) are new concepts not yet added to our rig... i will make an effort in the next week or 2 to try to get our rig to Southern Style so we can get those made and snap some pics... unfortunately tho you likely wont have the pic before this group buy expires

4.) I think its the stock bolt on hitch that bolts to this bumper you simply remove it... add the new bumper... then bolt it back on top but I may be wrong Southern Style would have to answer that for you
 
Does anyone as a photo of this bumper with paint on it? Preferably black powder coat. My wife backed into a rock today, and punched a hole in the factory bumper cover so a replacement will be coming soon. I would just like to see something more finished if possible, before I drop that kind of cash!

Oh I don't know? Maybe on page 1?
