Well I went through a bunch of search stuff, and the only pics I could find were the ones posted on C-Rok's website. Hoping that maybe someone has some better pics now?? Anyone have it?? I've got the rear bumper already, which I like a lot. I just want to see how the thing mounts up before I buy it. Anyone?? Thanx.
 
Yup, if you ever get to upstate NY you can see if in person. Though I do make occasional trips to Gardner, MA with the g/f to her parents.

I added the hi-lift mount and liscense plate mount earlier this year. I wuld definitely add the liscence plate mount if you go with this bumper. I ran around for two years with no problem and then on easter sunday I got pulled over in Vermont for it and was giving a fix-it ticket. So it went on just to stop the hassle.
 
here is mine i built off of there design it mounts almost like there but mine is welded to the bumper whe i fabbed the bumper and it angles up to clear the recovey points alittle better

Nice!! Thanx Carts! That's just what I needed. I take it you're happy with yours? Did you buy yours all at once??? Is it welded on or just bolted?

Now I REALLY need to get that tire carrier!! How is the visibility?

Thats funny. Once you throw up a 35, like I did, you can't see sh!t. I actually don't run a spare when driving around town. Too much weight nad not worth it, my daily commute is 5 miles around trip. But if driving longer or weekend trips I'll throw it on there.

I do love the bumper and carrier combo alot, tons of clearance. I can pretty much draw a straight line from my gas tank skid up and not hang up on anything. I bought the combo at once and had to drill and moun up the carrier to the bumper. Which I suggest measuring for when the bumper is mounted. I made the mistake of doing it on the bench and since the bumper spreads open when you mount it, my carrier mounts were off by 3/32". Doesn't seem like much but trust me, it will. I ended up with a different hitch pin fot a release than the stock one. Just keep the swing side geased and you should have no problems.
 
Yeah,but 380$ for about 50$ in material......

Nothing out the sides?? Doh! Currently my spare resides in the back, on the floor, which is why I'm eager to get it the F outa there!! I'd make one myself, but I don't have a bender! I may lower the tire a bit...we'll see. I don't DD the jeep that it would be going on that often though...although DDing isn't when I care about looking out the back!!

My bumper has already been on there for a few years, so I won't run into the bench issue. I think I'll burn the thing on there though, after I bolt it on I guess. Thanx again for the pics!
 
For hinge purposes only!The carrier my son built,the hinge is in "double" shear using 2 3/4"ID brass bushings from ACE a 3/4" bolt and is greasable.It has held up great,but it gives me an idea for a similar mount that could pivot from either side!
