Expedition One rear bumper: Integrated lights, or No Integrated lights - Page 21

Are there any pictures you can post of the swing out with the fuel can carriers? I have been holding off on committing only due to lack of info. The bumper itself looks great as does the swing out, but the fuel can carriers are a mystery. This is a key feature for me as I’m sure it is for many due to the limited range of the FJ fuel tank and limited options for aftermarket aux. fuel tanks right now. Thank you for your time.

We're working on a Gen 2 Carrier that will have more mounting options for stuff like hi-lifts and Jerry cans. We're hoping to have pictures of optional equipment mounts in about 2 weeks. I have 1 hi-lift mount right now, and maybe I can put together some CAD Renditions of a few different systems. I'm actually working on all that stuff right now so we'll see If I can get them up by monday...

It will carry atleast 1 classic style jerry can, we'll see if we can do 2 though. It will carry 2 of our thin style Geri cans.

Two classic military style Scepter fuel can holders are the most important item for the FJ. The ability to carry two fuel cans takes design (which it has in spades), engineering and testing. I need one to test for you

. Your bumper and swing out looks very stout

thanks again for the replies to my questions and so quickly.

I would volunteer to test one here in the urban jungle of NJ. Pot holes put one hell of a stress on parts and would surely ferret out any rattles or squeeks. In addition, the damn good looks of it could be tested it in all the parking lots here. I could drive in, do my shopping, and then come outside to see how many people are "Owww-ing" and "Ahhh-ing" over it. It would be like free advertising.

Is it March yet?

1/4 of the month is gone and no word???

It is never coming out is it?

**C5Drvr** · 03-13-2009, 05:29 PM

Any updates?

How can I get on the list for one?
And any chance I can get one pre-drilled for the tires carrier?
I can also go bare naked if it is cheaper.

That is what I am talking about, except it may be cheaper shipping if they came together. I just want to get my hands on this rear bumper and tire carrier. We have reach mid March and now we are descending into early april. At least a teaser update or something.
