my custom tire/fuel carrier build using stock bumper

Many days and I finally finished my v1.0 of my rear carrier set up. I did this on my 4Runner, but it can apply to most any vehicle. I have many ask me about it, so I made a video! I still want to make some improvements, but that will be for v1.1 :thumb:

Let me know what you think!

Also, get yourself a table to weld stuff on, some magnets squares, and clamps. makes a huge difference. even a stool that works with the table height. gotta get nice and comfy and then you'll see even more consistent welds.
 
I love it.

Gotta be a huge weight savings over a full bumper.

I'd be interested in a commercial version of this and I don't think I'm alone.
 
If i had'nt just ordered my CBI i'd be tempted to join the masses in insisting you start making them for the rest of us! Very clean! And as krax said, the weight savings!
 
This is really cool, I'd definitely be interested in something like this, if it was a weight and cost savings over a full bumper.

Well hello there ! 2011 Trail, 1 order please. Contact info. [email protected] do you accept Paypal Visa or Mastercard ?

But seriously great job man. I want to make one for myself also but I suck at welding :( need a lot of practice ( A Frucking LOT ! ) lol before I can make something close to what you have done !

I absolutely love what you have done man.
 
Very Cool - I also liked the video. +1 for my 2016 Trail if you move forward to a production kit or total package.

Yea, unfortunately I've been doing this at my parents house with a borrowed 110v welder. Had to clean up at the end of each night for a car to be parked in there. Slowed progress down, but I definitely agree. That'll definitely be the set up for my future garage space.
 
It's nice to see people going their own way out there. If I had the skill I would mess with something like this but ill have to go the $$$ route.
