Addicted Off-road rear bumper with tire swing?

[john.diachenko]

Has anyone incorporated a rear tire swing with Addicted Off-road's rear bumper? It is by far my favorite in terms of looks but I really like the tire swing look as well. I've searched for threads on the subject but no luck but I'm sure someone has tackled it.

Thanks.

He will build you one if you drop the truck off to him. Otherwise nope.

Check out Savage Off Road - pretty similar in design

I put one on, what would you like to know?



So mine is bolt on, my dad and I fabricated the swing out and brackets. It has a strike plate and Destaco 741 latch on the driver's side. 3 bolts hold on the hinge, it's wired internally for the license plate lights. If there are more detailed pictures you would like, let me know and I can get some taken. Since this picture was taken I've redone the lugs that hold the wheel on, it has 3 now instead of the 2. It's pretty sturdy, considering it's bolt on. Has a very slight wobble at about 70 mph, no noticeable wobble at any other speed.

That looks great. I was wondering about the latch but that seemed fairly easy. Do you have a close up of the hinge set up?

Forgive the dirtyness of the hinge... It's pheasant season and I'm running a lot of gravel these days, and I just reassembled the carrier after respraying the bumper (Raptorliner + gravel at 60+ doesn't work well). The hinge assembly is a steel box with nuts welded inside of it, bolts go through three holes drilled in the bumper into the hinge assembly.

That exactly what I was hoping someone had done. Thanks, that looks great.
