LoD VS Expedition One Rear Bumper/Tire Carrier? Which One?
Hey,
Looking to add a rear bumper and tire carrier, and I am stuck in between the two?
What do you guys think? Any opinions would be great!
Thanks Guys,

I do however really like the LOD bumper's jerry can system and cargo rack, as well as the rear light option. I don't know enough about their products, but I think their gen 3 bumper has tailgate integration as well.

I just received the LOD 3/4 bumper and tire carrier. I got the one with the lights in the bumper. That was a selling feature for me. More important to me was the integrated receiver hitch.
I do really like the swing motion of the Exped. One carrier. No extra levers or locks to mess around with !

I love my Expo One rear bumper and tire carrier....no experience with LOD though. The integration with the tailgate is seemless, smooth, and trouble free. Powder coating is strong, bumper has great lines that meet the stock rear fenders and overall no issues.

These were my two choices for rear bumpers. I went with LoD basically for the rear lights, intergrated hitch but the topper was free shipping from northridge4x4.ca. Shipping from Expo 1 to my place in BC was another $400.00...

I don't think you can go wrong either way! Both are great bumpers.
I like the E1 bumper a little more. I like the smoother lines of the E1 bumpers.
Both are high quality.
Both have good spinldes.
Both have good PC work.
Just buy both and send me whatever one you don;t use.

Your set up looks amazing too!!! I like the back up lights, but i already have a factory hitch, and with the expo1, it allows you to use it still. Also, the expo one opens up with the tailgate, and not seperatly. Although, i heard LoD gen 3 bumpers have this option aswell
