LP air and rear camera

I picked up all the metal and supplies I need and also ordered another moto metal 909 wheel. I was going to buy another tire too but I"m going to upgrade soon to 38" at a minimum

You can have the rear bumper if you want it. The only thing is it's gonna be a little scratched up from being in the bed of the truck with all the metal for the swing away tire carrier. The bumper came with the tow package but I'm going to cut off the bracket for the rear brake light hookup so I can weld it to the new bumper.

I'm not sure as far as tires... at a minimum I want to find a 38x13.50R20 but I want a bigger lift and may eventually want to go up to the Mickey Thompson 40x13.50R20 Baja Claw. First things first, though. I'm gonna get all my welding projects I have on the list out of the way first.

I was thinkin about the RIZE 12" but I want a skid plate and there isn't really a way to mount one to the front bracketry of the RIZE lift. It would be more feasible with the bulletproof lift but I'm not sure I wanna go that high just yet.

swing away tire carrier in progress...

Here is the spindle that will make the carrier rotate. It will be inserted in the sleeve which will be welding into the bumper.

Here is the spindle assembled.


Here is the securing side that will be welded at the opposite end of the bumper.


Square tubing will run between the spindle and securing side, welded on each side to look something like this...
