Has any ever converted a stock swing out tire carrier to a bumper. It looks like there should be some way to mount the body mount carrier to a tube bumper.
I would love to see some pictures if anyone has done it.
Thanks,

Bumper Mount

Will send pics soon.Anyway I took the very front pully mount and bearing from an old lawn tractor snow blower.(shaped in a vee).Cut it off of the frame with about 12 inches of steel.Reshaped it to wrap around my stock bumper,bolted and welded it on.Next took spare frame and removed all hardware.Boxed in mount side with thick walled tube of the carriers diameter.Pulled the pulley off of the shaft and slid carrier on.Hooks to stock tailgate location.For the weight I put a brace from the end of the bumper underneath to the frame to limit twist from my 35 1250.Will send pics.
