JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! 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.

I could have sworn that Rugged Ridge made a swing away that mounted to the stock bumper

Similar to this one

Here is the Mopar one, but its $500. The one I saw from Rugged Ridge was only $270ish. Man, I should have bookmarked it.

The one I saw had bolts on the top, but it was very similar to the carrier for their XHD bumper. It even had a couple shackles where the holes are in the prior pic.

I must have been mistaken. I think this is the thread I was thinking of:

Don't know if the manufacturers pay any attention to threads like these but I am also in the market for the whole enchilada. Problem is there are no perfect matches. If you review this thread you will notice one glaring deficiency. Look at the tire carriers and bumpers. Only a couple come close to fitting reasonable well. 80% or better have the spare mounted way too high as well as sticking out way too far. What's up with that?

I have a way around that problem and when/if I get the chance/time to make it I'll be sure to share it.
