    Dozer Swingout Rear Bumper, installed

    Got this mocked up last night on the GW, then installed it on the Cherokee. From this pic it looks like it overhangs the sides, but it doesn't (just due to how close I was when taking the pic).

      guess you didn't read the text above the pic:

      "Got this mocked up last night on the GW, then installed it on the Cherokee (Cherokee is on 35's)"

      I wanted to mock it up on several rigs before installing it

        Sweet

        How close does it tuck in to the body? License plate relocation bracket/mount? (Yes I know it's still a mockup).

          it is just a hair off the rear lower valance, and about 1/4" or more from the body at the mount. I'm playing with the distance and might move it out a hair more, but everything clears. License relocation kit: don't currently have one offered, but they are online all over the place for cheap. We'll look into having it as a kit

            assuming opinions are wanted... I think it looks great. Would like to see more than 2 bolts to hold a tire on it though. Maybe a cross piece for two more, and have it accept different rim sizes (15", 16")

              is it just me or does the bumper have a crown to it?

              looks good though!

                Tad, I posted here to show some pics and see what people thought.
                I know, we are trying to get more consistant with this.
                Please give us time, thank you for relocating it here.

                  I think its an optical illusion created by the reflection of the tag space.

                    Al: no crown, just the angle of the pic.

                    Gambler: I agree about the 2 studs, just doesn't seem like a lot

                        That would look great on my wag! Is there a lighted tag relocation bracket in the works fo it?

                          not yet, but there are kits all over the net for license bracket light / relocation kits. I'm going to have the hinge and mount moved a hair out as I'd like more clearance. But, other than that these are ready to put into production.

                            How bad does that thing obstruct the tail lenses?
                            Can a person see them well enough?

                              Looks like the backup lights are just about completely covered.
