Has any one built there own tire carrier swing out? Im thinking about building my own and was looking for a few pics and measurements of one. It can be home built or after market.
I built mine here are a couple of pics.
I used the spindle from A to Z fabrication, the latch from fastenal, and used a spring pin from a yakima bike carrier to keep in open.

I have been trying to find an awesome build I saw some time ago. It was a body mounted tire carrier that someone custom built. Had jerry cans, high lift jack mount, and cargo basket. When I find it I will post a link here.
Also found a step by step for building a tire carrier bumper that you will probably like.(Forgive me that it is from jeepforum.com)
i don't know if you are still looking for ideas. This is the design i based mine on but added on a lot myself. It was my first big welding project, still figuring out that metal moves when it hot.
