Default Rancho rear bumper pics please

Ok I have decided that I need a bumper with a tire carrier before I have any problems with my 35" tire on the tail gate. So I dont have alot of extra money for some of the more expensive ones. I have found the rancho bumper / tire carrier and I like the price, I am wanting to see some pics of some of these bumpers, especially with a body lift that is my only concern. I have a 1.25" body lift on my jk.

You really only have to drill one hole thru the cross member on drivers side. I used a file to make the top holes fit. It a lot easier with a file. The powder coating job on this bumper was better than I expected for the price. I think I paid a little over $400 dollars with the brake light shipped to my door. I still need to get a high lift. It took me about 3 hours to install it. The bushing are pretty heavy duty and so far mine doesn't make no noise. The latch is the only downside I see to this bumper. My jeep seems to drive better with the extra weight on the rear of the truck. I got this bumper with amazon super saver shipping. It crazy they second day something like this for free. Sorry though my jeep stays dirty.

Does anybody have side pics of this bumper? It seems to me like it sits very far away from the rear, or it could just be in my head...

Thanks.

I've made some bigger dollar purchases on my build up for sure buy I can tell you I'm very happy with this tire carrier - easy install, very solid and quite - it been on for about 3 months with zero issues.... I needed a bumper that would work with my Gobi setup and this fit the bill well!

Plus has extra room behind for my new rotopax and vector mount!

It did to me at first too. I was use to the tire sitting on the back gate. I dunno how far the rest of the tire carriers sit back. I have never seen another carrier up close. I like the guys rotopax idea. I still wanna put a high lift behind mine.

Man I gotta get that. I just did some looking. That is a cool idea with the rotopax on the tailgate. I like it.

The bushings messed up or wore out? $100 dollars lol. That is a hell of a deal. I don't see how it possibly could squeek. Where is it coming from? Has it always squeeked? I do agree the latch is a bitch. LOL
