Well I finally received my rear bumper and tire carrier last week from PureJeep. I purchased the setup through Northridge and it was all drop shipped from PureJeep so it took about 5 weeks and I had no problem waiting for it.
First off the three things that kind of irritated me.
1. When I spend a grand on something I expect some instructions on how to put it together, none came with it. Also no one answered either of the two numbers on PureJeep's website. Thanks to a forum member for giving me some tips and directions.
2. Cheap ass cadmium plated bolts, I replaced the 6 main bolts with all stainless hardware. I would rather pay an extra few for some nice hardware.
3. My dual latch tailgate mounting plate. Take a look at the picture below, I could only use 4 of the main 8 stock bolts. The whole plate is off in regards to the holes. I may be contacting the vendors for a new one.

Now that's all out the way. I couldn't be happier with the setup. The bumper and carrier fits like a glove and is solid as hell! I was debating getting this setup because of the stubby rear, but it looks cool as shit and goes good with my front PSC Brawler Lite! Let me know what you guys think I snapped a couple pics on the new phone today.

Thanks, yeah for the most part I can see out of it. The damn rear window wiper takes up more room. Blocks just as much as the other tire carriers.
Some people head out to Hammond, St Francisville and Sicily Island.
