Swing Arm Tire Carrier

mojoblue · 10-31-2006, 03:58 PM

I'm planning to upgrade to a large sized tire carrier. The problem is I do not know the manufacturer of my existing receiver hitch bumper. The bumper has square tubing with 2 upright stems powder-coated positioned just inside the tail lights- I'm assuming they are for attaching a swing arm.
Anyone ran into something like this?

sounds kinda like a Big Daddy Off Road (now known as Scorpion) bumper.

although they stems on the BD are not inboard of the tail lights.....sorry...nevermind.

Yoohoo that is the one... I owe you something ! I hope I can find a swing arm to fit..

Olympic makes a tire swing that will fit most aftermarket bumpers. You'll need a drill, though.

Q-tech carries the Tomken one...

Another option is go get one that attaches to the tub. The Bestop is popular, but I really like the OR-FAB one, with the integrated Jerry can holders.

There is a tire carrier for it. Just google tomken tire carrier. I have seen them in quadratec also. I dont think it is the beffiest tire carrier out there though. I beleive it only holds up to a 33.

Yep - I did find it and the guys at Tomken are helpful. For Price and getting the load off the body, it seems to fit my needs. - Thanks to the dogpile of responses - I really do appreciate it.
