Thank you. Your bumper/ tire carrier is almost exactly what I had dreamed up in my head. I would think you were in there if you offered some type of slidder to attach to the tire carrier to keep my spare from getting hung up on the rocks. I love the rear stingers for this, but with the 4 door and 3rd row.. .that would be a pain to lift it all the time. I'm going to try to fab something up for a stinger after I put your bumper on.
I'm thinking a frame attached to the tire carrier with a set of removable bars connecting to the bumper to the lower part of the tire carrier.
I think I can fab up a stinger that will fit over your carrier as well if I don't like the first idea. a couple quick connects on the bumper and on the body. We have some very strong quick connects at work(boat shop) from a removable wake board tower.
I didn't think this would be as big of a problem untill last weekend. My 36" spare is mounted to the gate for now( I cut the bumper up to make room for it). My spare has marks on it from scrapeing the ground when I was climbing a rock face. With a tire carrier it will be hanging further back.
So I need to know I can rest the back of the jeep on the spare on the carrier or build a stinger for it to cover it up.
This is last weekend. This spot snagged my spare a little. I will be attempting worse climbs when the oppertunities present. I would just hate to wreck my carrier.
