Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Homemade? You must have a nice fab shop in your garage.

I like the clean design of the bumper a lot, but I am not sure how long the tire carrier is going to hold up, specially if you go to larger tires.
What type of bearing(s) did you use?

Either way good job!

All the steel that I used (PTR) is for construction... so I think that should carry a 35 tire

Nice job on the bumper, looks good. I have a rachet strap holding my 37, onto my stock carrier so it won't bounce.
