OK for those running the ARB rear bumper, couple of questions:

1. What is the measurement from the rear of the passenger side body (tailgate) to the outer edge of the bumper?

2. Is the bumper area in front of the hinges solid or hollow?

3. Can you post a pic from the top looking down (pass side)


I am thinking of doing a one off ARB rear bumper with swing out tire carrier but before I buy the bumper I want to make sure it is possible. I can't believe ARB hasn't done this yet

Thanks

Why not just buy the Mopar rear bumper with tire swing? It looks the exact same as the ARB and can be found for under $1000.

It might look similar, but they aren't the same.

Mopar is sharp corners, ARB is smoother corners.
Mopar has d ring mounts, ARB has High Lift pockets.

Myself, I would spend 750 plus the price to add a carrier and get the ARB.

ARB looks different and is built WAAAAY better that Mopar! I can do a one off with an ARB for the same cost or less and have gerry can, cb, and hilift provisions as well.

Have you seen them side by side in person? Im just curious, not trying to be an smart ace. I didnt know my Mopar was a POS. I like my Mopar. It doesnt rattle at all, my wife can open and close the swing. It fits my 37" tire perfectly and seems super stout. I have about 10k miles on it and no problems at all... and did I mention no rattles.
