I am always able to build a new bumper. Just let me know what you are wanting and i'll get you a price.

Thanks for the thoughts Tony.

im just wanting a rear bumper with the swing out tire carrier, d-rings, trailer hitch capable of pulling a trailer not just for recovery and tire carrier needs to hold @ least a 35" tire i want one that wont wear out in a year or 2 and start wobbling and rattling.  What do you think?

Let's see....no rattles  (check)
Need to mount 35" tire (check)
Need to use 2" receiver for towing (check)

Just checking to make sure that mine fails ALL of your requirements.  Don't buy Chinese crap sold under the Smittybilt banner.  Mine has been rattle-free for 11 out of the 500 days I have owned it.  It flexes with a 33x10.50 on it.  Oh yeah, and I popped some of the welds loading up my pop-up camper on DI last summer.

Smittybilt FTW....NOT

Pauls not bitter.

He just so upset that his stomach is churning causing the bile to rise into his throat creating a terrible taste in his mouth...

Oh wait that is bitter...

Can anybody send me a pic of Nozillas handy work I am definitely more interested in having someone local build it than send my money somewhere else.  Does anybody know how much to have something like that powder coated I had some rims done last year they were around $325 I wonder if the bumper would be the same. Nozillas how long would it take you to make me 1?

i like them just the normal bumper with the tire carrier is what im looking for (the wife wants to drive it as a d/d groceries and things in the back) i just want d-ring tabs and a hitch and safety chain slots, but will this tire carrier support a 35"x 12.50 and could we change it just a little nothing major i would try to draw it and show it to you first to see what you think, and i am just talking about the carrier not the bumper.  what do you think
