stock swing away

do any of you guys know what trim/year the stock swing away tire carrier came on? i know they are rare... im trying to get some details to narrow my junkyard searching. thanks!

I have one, but I don't know how to get it on or if it's even the right year for my 98.

I had one on my '88. The pivots on the hinges are subject to wear. When they let go, the whole thing falls off the Jeep!! It happened to me, with a 33x12.5 BFG spare and 5 gallons of gas; not good for the back, if your first reaction is to hang on! Don't know if latter models were redesigned, but I'd be careful carrying anything on a stock carrier other than a stock-size spare.

88 Chief, 4 door. Stock swing away mounts with one arm on the right hand corner of the bumper and one arm just above the tail lights(ish).
