I figure since the bumper is trash now, might as well cut into it some more. lol i think it came out ok.Nice! I really like that you cut the bumper to cover the hatch area. Glad it turned out old for you.
I got a set of rigid as well getting ready to go in next week.As for the Rigids that fit in the cut outs... I got a set off amazon for less than 200 shipped. I use them a lot now backing up or getting tailgaters off my rear:lookout:

so do your backup lights light up when you put in reverse and you can switch them on independently as well?
Looks great, how long did the install take? Looking to store other items on the swing out, does the swing out rattle if there is no tire on it?
anybody knows what this is for? it came with the hardware bag but never used it. didn't say anything in the instructions either.

Spacers? I can't remember....sorry for the useless reply!
Great job on the install, it looks awesome. I highly recommend putting that spare tire as High, and Close to the vehicle as possible. While wheeling the other day, mine dragged in a little gully and actually pushed the rear swing-arm into the tailgate, causing it the dent and break the paint. The spare tire mounting brackets actually bent UP a little. All in all, it is fine, but my spare is now permanently angled and no longer straight vertical. Just a word of caution...you should be just fine
I'll post some pics in my build thread explaining what happened in better detail.

worked a couple of hours on friday after work taking out my stock bumper.
I worked most of saturday measuring and cutting my stock bumper, sorting out and identifying all the parts. and spent most of sunday relocating my icon rear remote reservoir, since it was on the way of the bumper wing enforcement bracket, that was a PITA because you have to drill a hole in your frame. and spent a couple hours today after work installing my tire swing assembly. I have a single jerry can mount but don't have a jerry can yet and there's a spot for a high lift jack behind the assembly. It does not rattle without the tire, the latch is pretty strong.
great thread. I'm picking my rear bumper up this week. already installed the front and slider couple weeks ago. I got shrockworks to do a different hoop design. I'm loving it!! What are yal doing for camera relocation? And what rear springs are yal running? I currently have OME medium load, wasn't sure if I need to go up to heavy? advice?
