This accessory is not only designed to protect your vehicle from animal strikes but also ads a number of other features and benefits to the front end of your vehicle. Our range of Gobi-X front bumpers are designed to follow the sleek lines of your offroad vehicle while still retaining the rugged safari look and feel so loved by all offroad enthusiasts. Our front bumpers also vastly improve the approach angle on your vehicle.

Recovery Points

All our recovery points are designed to be able to take 3.25T and 4.75T rated shackles.

Integrated Winch Plate

The Gobi-X front bumpers are designed to accommodate most 12 000lb winches and smaller. They are also hawse and roller fairlead compatible. In the case of the Gen 3 and Gen 4 Suzuki Jimny’s; these bumpers will accommodate most popular 8000Lb winches and smaller.

Flip Up Number Plate Holder

All Gobi-X front bumper are supplied with a flip-up number plate bracket. These are fitted to our bumpers to ensure quick and efficient access to winch hook.

Integrated Jacking Points

These jacking points are designed to be used with our Gobi-X Hi-lift Jack adaptor which assists in making the vehicle jacking process safer for the operator and vehicle alike.

Integrated fog lights

Ensuring better visibility at night or during foggy conditions the Gobi-X range of front bumpers are either supplied with aftermarket integrated fog lights or in some cases use the original OE fog lights.

Removable Spot Light Bracket

For customers not opting for spotlights on their Gobi-X bumper we have designed our bars with a removable spotlight bracket. In doing this the bumper retains its sleek lines and compact fit on the vehicle.

3D Infrared Scanning

Gobi-X uses the latest in 3D Infrared scanning technology when engineering their full range of offroad accessories. The three dimensional real-time data created by scanning ensures a very high level of accuracy. This ensures our products can be easily replicated to high standards, which then fits like a glove during the installation phase of the product.

Solidworks Design

Once our design Team scans the vehicles and gathers all the relevant 3D data points; this information is transferred to our Solidworks CAD design software. This is where the concept is born and then refined into a prototype unit! We then break down the design into individual components which are ordered and assembled for vehicle fitment.

This software is additionally utilized for our detailed fitting instructions for our marketing material.

Laser Cutting and
CNC Bending

Gobi-X Expedition Gear relies on more than 3200 unique components(2024) to construct our current product range. These components must be precisely accurate for every build, this is achieved through laser cutting and CNC bending processes. Our materials are of premium quality and come with traceable specification certification.

Welding and Grinding

Currently all our welding and grinding is done by hand. Our highly skilled Team uses the latest in mig and tig welding technology and receives in house training regularly. We are proud to say we have a combined 140 years of welding experience and 60 years held by our grinding/finishing Team.

Powder Coating

After welding and grinding all our steel items get sent though our inhouse powder coating plant. The pre-treatment process is critical when it comes to any form of metal coating processes. We employ a heated seven-step treatment tank cleaning process to prepare our material before applying the epoxy coating.

The cleaning process includes degreasing, acid etching and then a motor industry grade phosphate coating. Only then are the products ready to be sent for coating.

The epoxy coating powder is exceptionally durable providing our engineered products with superior protection against the elements.

ISO 9001 Certified

Gobi-X Expedition Gear is ISO 9001 certified which ensures we keep to the international standards for quality management systems and quality assurance as set out by ISO. Applying these processes within our business ensures high levels of efficiency and quality within Gobi-X.

Detailed Fitting Instructions

Every product from Gobi-X Expedition Gear includes a QR code granting access to detailed fitting instructions and fitting kit list. This ensure all fitment technicians are able to access the data for precise and efficient fitting of our product range. We prioritise OEM mounting points/holes wherever feasible, although some products may necessitate drilling to ensure proper fitment.

Design Assembly
System (DAS)

All our complex products have been designed to be assembled using a “Tab and Slot System” before we commence welding. This again ensures very high levels of accuracy and speeds up the manufacturing process.
