Default Hanson Offroad front bumper, rear bumper, and tire carrier

Hanson front stubby bumper with winch hoop and stock fog lights installed. Also Hanson rear bumper and tire carrier setup. The tire carrier mounts to the stock tail gate hinges as well as the same location of the stock tire carrier. It is very beefy and holds my 35" spare with no flex or rattles or any other issues I have heard with some of the other carriers. I think Hanson did a great job with the design of these items, and I can't wait to see their rock sliders when they are done. Their stuff is a little pricey compared to other MFG's, but the quality is very good!

Looks great. Is the tire carrier mounted on the door? If so, any concerns about the extra weight on the door when open?

Looks great. The tire carrier appears to be mounted on the tailgate. Just the weight of my 35" spare is a bit too much for the hinges. I can't imagine adding another 25 or 30 lbs of steel to the mix though.

Tim,
That is a great looking setup on your rig. I think that looks bad-ass. You got to be happy with that kind of look. The tire carrier is something I will have to look at down the road and this looks like exactly what I want my bumper/carrier to look and function.

I dont mean to be a jerk but I thought the whole point of a rear bumper was to get the heavy 35 or 37 off the tailgate.

I had a Hanson front bumper on my 73 Bronco and loved it.

I havn't seen Tim's front bumper in person but I have seen the rear. I really like the lines. Seems to really fit the JK well. Many of these new bumpers look like add ons or after thoughts. I chose the PureJeep for that same reason. Hanson has done a nice job.
