2.5 Gen Bumpers!

The factory body lines actually slightly angle up to the outside where the grille ends. We build our bumpers with a flat top, but have them sit slightly in front of the grill so the gap can be adjusted up a little tighter on the ends without interfering with the grill and body panels when flexing.

 

SOB Fab bumper out getting work done.

 

Love it man!

 

Anyone got a rear bumper that retains the factory spare tire location that they like? Just not sure I want a swing out for a spare.

Have the RCI Arapaho front bumper

 

C4 retains the factory spare. Though my 37s wont fit...

 

Fair, Then lets say a bumper that will fit a 34" tire (295/70r18) in the stock spare location.

 

Ueah I had that size under there. just had to cut off the spare tire tabs to fit the 295s. nothing to do with the bumper.

 

I get that. Already planning on it. Some after market bumpers have supports and a new trailer hitch mounted that interfere with with spare tire location.

 

C4 uses the stock hitch reciever. Btw a sawzall cuts through the tabs like a hot knife thru butter. then a grinder wheel to smooth the edges and spay some rustoleum.

 

There are 2 rivets holding each tab in place. I drilled out the rivets, pushed the tabs out and used a single bolt to hold each tab in place. Helps to keep my 35” spare centered.

 

Does anybody know who else makes rear bumpers with the integrated corner steps?
