any one have any ideas ?
AJ's=$800 ish
please give me some ideas
Thanks

 

they all look pretty nice. my rear was like 250 bucks and it looks a little small for my xj. i bought front and rear off ebay for around 500 bucks.

 

you got a rear tire carrier bumper for $250

 

I like AJ's the best plus he does great stuff and the first one i dont like the D rings the sealed kind. and the second one looks too boxy

 

Check out Detours back bone if you want a strong rear bumper with stock appearance.

 

Ya i like Ajs as well i just dont know a price?

 

I personally like the look of the C-Rok rear bumper for 450.

 

Thats $450 for just the bumper the tire carier is another $380 0r $350 if you get a bumper at the same time.
but thanks

 

dude check out www.rigidco.com good stuff not to pricey thats where i got mine

 

AJ just redesigned his hinge for tire carriers. I talked to him, and he is confident that his new hinge is more then 150% stronger then the ones he used to use. They are pretty sweet setups.

Well worth the extra money IMO.

That first ad, said that their bumpers mount to the stock locations...you will want something that mounts to the nutserts as well

 

I'm not sure what type of wheeling you plan on getting into, but a tire mounted to the back of my Jeep would be a hinderance, something to get hung up on.

their rear bumper is pretty sweet and decent price wise

 

the problem with that is the only other option there is other than having your spare in the cargo area is putting it on the roof and not only is that a pain in the butt to get it up and down it also raises the center of gravity since a fullsize spare weighs about 75-80 lbs. it also adds way more wind drag while driveing on the highway than what a rear tire carrier would produce.

 

thanks for that link 90XJMark. I really like the look of those bumpers. Are your using them? How are they holding up?

 

i have the front and love it as it is very functional with angles as well as tow points and anchoring the winch hook to. I have not purchased the rear yet I am actually trying to sell me XJ you can read it up in the for sale section, if I dont have any luck and can manage my wifes medical bill without selling it I would love too just does not look too promising as another came in today for 2k............ouch
