Rear bumpers

It's time to get a rear bumper fabbed so I'm looking for ideas.

I need a swing away tire carrier on it that will handle a 35" tire.

Any photos out there?

Re: Rear bumpers

As far as bumper goes it is personal pref but i just took in a hummer h2 and the swing away spare carrier on them is pretty slick and carries a 31 or a 33" tire from factory and is pretty trick and looks fairly hd just a thought

Re: Rear bumpers

I thought the H2s had 34" tires stock...could be a good starting point.

Re: Rear bumpers

try blazenoffroad they have a nice looking front bumper and rear one . h2s come with a 35 inch tall tire a 315/75r16 and the stock carrier from one would work nice been keeping an eye out for one

Re: Rear bumpers

I like the look of Burts bumper too but I gotta have a swing away tire carrier.

I think I'll try to find a Hummer dealer and take a look at what they have.

Looked at Blazenoffroad and didn't see anything that struck my eye really, but then again....I'm not sure what I'm looking for yet either ;-)

Re: Rear bumpers

Or did you think the Expedition had a gable end on the drivers side?

Re: Rear bumpers

LOL.....ya know I didn't even see the tire carrier that doesn't have a tire on it ;-)

I see it now.....and that is pretty much what I'm looking for.

Any close ups or other photos Burt?
