This is a high clearance weld-together rear bumper kit for the 2010-current Lexus GX460. With the GX460, Lexus left a lot to be desired when it comes to fitting a clean, high clearance rear bumper. The stock bumper extends way up the sides of the body and there is a bulky frame crossmember located behind the rear lift gate. Both of these factors make it very difficult to maximize ground clearance and maintain a low bumper profile. After many design iterations, we settled on a bumper that leaves your frame crossmember fully intact and keeps the top section of the stock plastic bumper valence. By doing this, we feel that we have achieved a very tidy bumper profile that will complement the lines of your GX460 as well as provide maximum ground clearance and departure angles. This also means that no frame modification of any kind is required.

The end result is a bumper that features entirely bolt-on construction, mounting holes for the optional 2″ hitch receiver, and excellent protection from trail obstacles, trees and distracted drivers. The low profile design has also resulted in very reasonable weights of 118lbs for the steel bumper and 60lbs for the aluminum version. Don’t want to lose your factory parking sensor system? No problem. This bumper kit comes with CNC-cut ports for each of the 4 factory reverse sensors as well as internal routing ports for the factory wiring harness to pass through without any modification or extensions required. Simply pop the sensors into this replacement bumper, route the factory harness through the internal ports, and plug it back into the vehicle.

The swing out tire carrier comes in either a single or dual sided configuration and is built to accept a tire up to 35″ in diameter. Both carriers include mounting brackets for a hilift jack and other recovery items. The dual swing out includes the hilift mount as well as a lockable jerry can holder designed to fit two 20L NATO style jerry cans. These carriers feature CNC-bent 3/8″ steel mounting brackets, heavy duty double heim joint hinges, 2000lb toggle latches, T-handle spring pins, and a replaceable UHMW catch pad that provides secure, rattle free operation. The heim joints in conjunction with the toggle latch provide tons of adjustability, allowing for easy assembly and guaranteed alignment of the carrier latch. The single swing out add-on weighs 34lbs and the dual swing out add-on with gas can holder weighs 77lbs.
