We wouldn't pay over a grand just to carry a spare tire either. That's why we built the UltraSwing to also be a swing out for your bike rack, a camp table, Rotopax mount, Hi-Lift, Waterport, or anything else you can think of mounting to the UltraSwing using the UltraPlate.
This video gives a quick look at the basic functionality we built in

We beg to differ. Here's a video for proof.

Great choice! We're big fans of C4, we're actually a dealer and do installs. If rear-end protection is enough of a priority, that you're willing to add the 250+ lbs of weight, then it's definitely the right call.
For a lot of people out there, their 4Runner is used for a lot of other activities and types of trips than just wheeling hard. Whether it's carrying bikes, camping, or wanting to go fast off-road, the UltraSwing can be a much better alternative than a replacement bumper for those applications.

@ rigdsupply
do you guys still offer the $888(pre-ordered price) shipped. Let me know interested on the Ultraswing.
Thanks
Chris

The pre-order pricing was a one-time deal and is long gone. However, we do offer the Ramblers Club which can save you 10% off the UltraSwing and accessories. Ramblers Club Membership - RIGd Supply
Also, if you’re ever down in SoCal we’ll do a free install (and it’ll save you shipping which is about $100ish)
As of right now 4th/5th Gen UltraSwings are in-stock

Went with the Baja Rack Ladder as it makes it easier to access the roof with the center tire carrier left in place.

Looks great! Thanks for stopping by yesterday. Come by anytime

Anyone aware of a semi-long term review of this product? I'm ordering a 33 gallon aux tank for my 5th gen T4R and would need a carrier for the spare wheel and some Rotopax Water Packs. I recognize that a full rear bumper replacement would be a more durable option but my needs and usage does not justify that sort of investment.

This is another option. It also sits closer to the vehicle.

This is a great option, especially for those not needing the bike rack option.

Rigd Supply Ultraswing Tire Carrier
I thought the pro came with a spare pro wheel ? I like the de tours tire rack more as it has the adjustable tire depth and lower price.

Detours of Maine
I actually don't have this, I just remember it from a previous topic. So it may be compatible with a bike rack, I just don't know. Doubt the bikes would swing out also. I also like the fact that it sits close to the 4Runner. It doesn't come powdercoated so possibly a reason why it is cheaper.

FYI, The price isn't that much lower after you get it powder coated. The detours unit doesn't come with it.

building a 1st gen rear bumper, can you tell me where you got your latch system? used 4x innovations last and it squeaks a lot and bounces more than id like.

Am I missing something but none of the pics have lighting in the rear plate? Isn’t this a legal requirement?
