Anyone have any good pictures of rear tube bumpers? I have a guy that is going to weld a bumper for me, just need some ideas. Any pictures of a bumper off the vehicle would be great.

Making good tie in brackets is highly suggested after that its pretty much owner choice. I do suggest cutting slots in bumper and and extending brackets thru and weld inside and out.....https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f58/re...-build-181416/

Thanks for the tip! I was hoping for someone to have an idea on how to make it strong enough to be used as a recovery point and to carry a tire carrier.

Tying in a hitch under it what I plan on ,that way you sandwiching the frame between the bracket and hitch .Then using the hitch for pulling and bumper for protection. Im using 6x4 sch 40 rectangular tube for a bumper myself. That way it matchs body lines and front bumper.
