Spare tire carrier
This is my take on a spare tire carrier. 1 5/8" tubing, 4- dom bushings, 2 hitch pins, mis. bolts I have around 100 bucks in it. I used a old wheel bearing to mount the tire and my old stock sway bar links to mount the jack at the bottom. It mounts to the stock rear bumper and to the hatch, Its solid.

the brackets are made of 1/4" steel and the hatch is sandwiched between two brackets will take more pics later. It should slide on rocks not rip off lol. You fold it down and open hatch and have access from the sides.

That came out kind of rude and that's not my intention. Just saying in the areas I wheel the tube would be bent to the point it wouldn't work right anymore if it didn't get ripped off.
