nice mount man, i want one!!!
This is the almost finished carrier. I used a trailer hitch pin to lock the swing out right now cause the welder ran out of wire. I'm going to use freeze plugs to cap off the open ends of the pipe. I used wire ties to attach the license plate cause again I ran out of wire. I'm also going to mount a license plate light, back up lights & wire them to the trailer plug.
Not sure if your done, but you may think about building a block or spacer to weld onto the bumper between it and the swinging tire carier where the pin goes through... Im just thinking with the weight on it and the bouncing around caused by offroading will cause un-needed stress on the carier/hing.... I dont know if that makes sence or not.
this is a guy near me
Thats a neat idea, i have seen it done a few times, but if you get stuff in and out of your rig often then I would shy away, seems it might get old lifting it up and down..... Although you could retro fit a hydro lifter.... Now that would be cool
I had one on my K5 Blazer & it got old quick lifting a 33" tire mounted to a steel rim
if you build it to swing outwards it wouldn't be bad at all. just getting it on ad off would suck.
