Nobody has a rear bumper with a spare tire carrier that isn't stock? I thought I might get at least 1 pisture. Thanks

I have a cool one that is for a stock bumper it bolts in between the bumper not the body and has gas shock that lets you lower it down so you can lower the tail gate it will hold a 35in tire with no trouble . I don’t have it on my blazer right now blazer is tore down an getting a face lift but I if you think its something you would like to see Ill snap a pic of it for you

I didn't build the bumper...just the tire carrier.

That's a 33" tire mounted to it.

Here's another version of the same thing.

That's a 36" spare mounted on it.

I built mine...made it hold the tire higher up as I was allways draging my spare with the old gate I had..

Soorry I havnt got you pics yet if i have time Ill take a few tomarrow for you. only problem is I dont have a stock bumper to set it up aganst so it may be hard to tell how it mounts. but it is a cool set up instead of swinging a way to the side it drops down like the tale gate and uses a gas shock to make it easy to lift and lower.

This one is on a blazer I am still trying to buy.....

Here is a link to the tire carrier I have its kinda cool no holes in the body needed. It bolts to the bumper you can use one bumper bolt but you need to drill one too . You will also need to drill one for the pin that hold it in place when up. But I would rather change a pumper if I get tired of it then have to fill holes in the body and paint .it folds down like the tale gate does . Im not sure who made it but it is a universal fit you can move the lugs to fit any wheel . The gas shock is strong and makes lifting the tire easy. I was going to take a pic with it in the down position but I couldn’t hold the crow bar and take the pic. It will hold a 35 in tire so it would be great for some one with 33s it looks like it would be easy to make theirs not a lot to it.
