i know theres nothing spectacular.... But i found the swing carrier and front hooks at a yard for thirty bucks.. The carrier def took some work to put in but i think it was worth it... Unfortuantely I hace a sub in the quater panel were it hooks up so I have to figure out another way to brace it.. Otherwise I think it came out clean... What do you guys think?

looks good, did you have to cut a square section out of your bumper? i have one that came stock. i had a heavy 31 up there for a while and it held perfectly well.

yeah.. I used a angle grinder and threw on a cutting wheel.. That wasnt the tricky part though... THe pivot point were the the bumper with the four rectangular holes was a *****.. But once again thank god for a cut off wheel.. Thanks

What size tire do you have on there?

Sweet dude. Mine came stock w/ the carrier (love it) and I have a 31 mounted on it w/ no probs. I got my front hooks from a local Pick N Pull for $20.

FYI -
I got the same carrier. Worked great....till I threw a 32" up there. Now it is starting to squeak at every bumb... I think it is going to fall off soon..... Stick with 31's!!!!

thats a 31 on there... It looks like I may have to extend the studs on the carrier or make a newbracket to make it secure... But it works for now.

My biggest concern is not having the internal brace for the quater panel on there. I am gonna have to come up with something..

I have a pic of the stock bracket. Check out my site so you can see what they used and maybe use it as a template for your interior brace. Looks good BTW.
