was wondering if there would be any interest in a rear tube bumper with or without tire carrier

like this




would be all cleaned up ready to paint and the open tubes shown would be capped off with some D-ring mounts

also attaching a pdf file with a couple simple drawing i did in autocad before building mine to get an idea of a look
the first is with the tire centered like whats shown in the pic the second is with the tire offset to the passenger side to include a jerry can mount

with tire carrier it would come out around 450-500 with either setup (jerrycan mount wouldnt be included) plus shipping

 

I think they look great, and would be very interested, but even thought other big companies charge way huge $$$$, too rich for my blood, if you could do center mounted tire carrier option with hitch and dring s included shipped in the 350-400 range, i think they would be great!

 

Id be interested how much without tire carrier??? Are you building them or just have onee???

 

if i could sell this and justify buying a bender i could drop the price on them getting them with carrier in the 300 range but with the cost of tube now 450-500 is the best i can do as these include a mounting tube that run inside the unibody acting as a nut strip with 5 mounts under there per side and uses the 8 factory mounting points also including a 3x2 backer tube that the hitch runs through and welds to each mount given you a hitch that should carry the weight the XJ is limited to with ease

 

without the carrrier looking at around 300 plus shipping still under others price and this is all one peice no bolting together with thin plates plus it includes a hitch

and i built this and may make more if theres interest the more interest the lower the price

 

Plum i could probably do one around 400 for you as shipping wouldnt be a problem you live at most 45 mins from me we could arrange something for delivery ill have to check tube prices again

 

I'd be interested in a tire carrier assembly that can be welded onto other aftermarket rear bumpers. I'm not a fan of tube bumpers though.

 

i can do a carrier like the one pictured or one that can also hold a jerry can like the attachment shows can include the swing away hinge kit for around 200 plus shipping carrier will be out of tube as shown though could probably make one with a 2x3 box tube lower peice and the rest from round but would need to check pricing

 

Let me know a shipped price for one with tire carrier to 28278 if you have to send in two pieces I can weld

 

Didn't even look at location, so shipping is outta the question, i am behind a bit in finishing my rock sliders and i make cb mounts for sale on forum, but let the interest grow and gimme a few weeks to get caught up and i think we can make this happen, also i run a car stereo/fab shop in the area, so i can get the word out especially if the price is right and fitment and quality is as good as mentioned and in pics!!

 

can you post a pic of the full bumper? Just seeing the side and center doesn't give me enough of a view to see if I like it.

 

ill get more pics once its finished cleaned and reinstalled
this week im going to work on pricing and see if i can get the cost down to make it alittle more affordable to everyone
then if interest grows ill release it for sale

 

i checked on pricing and tried to get the cost of these down but with everything involved with these the prices are the best i can get at this time unless steel drops
as is im making about 50 bucks for 12-14 hours of work before adding up shop supplies so its not like im tring to get rich lol this is a well built bumper

if something changes ill post up new prices but for now ill have to stick to the 500 plus shipping
