Ok so I've been wanting a swing out tire carrier for a long time now. The only one they sell that will directly go on the ST is one that gets mounted to the hitch receiver but that sticks out too far and hangs down way to low, atleast to me.
:angry:
So I've been researching for over a year now on how I could go about fabricating one to the plastic bumper/ bumper cover with no luck or help so I devised my own design.
nline:
Fabricating and designing the main part of the tire carrier wasn't too hard, mounting it to the truck on the other hand took alot of measuring and cutting in certain areas not to cut out too much support out of the flimsy plastic bumper.
:banana:
Here's the link to the build thread and inside is the link to PhotoBucket where you can find the build pictures.
