Default Back Bumper

I'm thinking of getting a swing away spar tire holding back bumper but I have 35" tires and in my minds eye it looks stupid having such a big tire back there. If anyone has this setup could you please post a pic? I want to see what this looks like before I spend the money.

You can pick up cheap ones on CL. You can find a decent brand that's used.

Or...

If you're dead set on new welders just get one at harbor freight. Limited welding with something small and cheap will do just as fine. Just check out the reviews!

Cool, thanks for the pics. I think I'm going to go with the tire mount. I want my basket free for other cargo, like maybe a deer.

Anyway, I don't think a 35 would look to big and I like how some of them bumpers are offset to the drivers side

I got a 38 on the back of mine. You lose a good bit of site but gain a lot of interrior room.
