Looking for a supplier: Rear swing out bumper weld yourself kit?

[subspd]

Anyone know who out there will sell a complete weld it yourself rear bumper with tire carrier?

Try checking with 4x4labs. A friend of mine asked them about a month ago and the answer was either "yes" or "we're working on it" but I can't remember which. Good luck with the search!

Luke at 4x4 labs says that they have one! Still waiting on a total price with shipping. I also am trying to find a picture of the bumper completed... Anyone seen one?

So did you get the kit ,is this all the goodies I see in this pic? Would you guys mind sharing the price of the kit? Also [MENTION=47269]Darklight[/MENTION] has a 4x4 labs bumper. Probably the nicest bumper I have seen on a 4th gen but he also had it built with specific options but I would think the overall platform would be the same.

This is the 4x4 labs weld it yourself bumper. However it is fully customizable of course.

Mines different on the side plates. All can be difrently designed for each person's preference.

Right, Luke was saying I might be able to reuse the top caps of the stock bumper for a more streamlined and lighter option. Got any pics of yours?

The plates under the lights have no holes/dimples on them anymore like Darklights.
Mine have the round tube that sits on top of the sides and rap around with no kick outs.

I'm still working on mine. I can post up some photos of his proto type later

This is a gen4 bumper that was the proto type of the design Luke is doing now.
It sits out side, just swing by and you can have it when he's not there. LOL, joke.

I took these pictures incase I needed reference as no install directions.
He seen some things I have done/built on my ride and figured I would have no problem.

All attachments that are listed in his web site are available for this bumper also. He also designed the jerry can holder that can be removable, and attaches to the latter assemble. I didn't buy any extras as I'm going to do my own. I told him I was going to the Jerry can holder on the latter, he said like this, yea like that. His last words where great mine think alike.

The sections below the tail light will need some cutting down. Don't think your getting a kit that are just butt and weld( for warning). Have metal cutters, band saw, grinders ready. You will need to do some pulling, propping to put this together. Yes I have fabricating experience is why I say this.
The tube section you might have to play around with, push and pull the sides, but sits about 1/4" below the body line.

To give you an idea of the sides on pulling in position for placement for welding.

Thanks for the pics, having fun! The bumper looks good so far. I have a feeling I'll have one of these on the way around tax return time.

Getting a little closer. This is a weekend project for me.

Should have the swing arms done next weekend. Try to get some shots of it on the ride for you all.
