Rear Bumper and/or ice chest rack that would work with stock

Post by laffycaffi »

Looking to get a rear ice chest rack on my spare tire, but it's looking like what I really need to do is replace the rear bumper to accomplish this. Let me know if you have ideas. Thank you1

I've got a spare chunk of bumper-sized steel and could fab something if you're interested.

I bought a tire carrier assembly from Protofab and used a 2x4 steel tube behind the stock bumper to mount it. ItΓÇÖs not perfect, but it serves its purpose. You could do something similar with a cooler rack.

Hi Justin!

Not sure how I missed this - that could be really cool - would love to talk more.

Thanks,
Mark

Wow very cool! I have zero welding experience (hoping to learn) and would likely set my house on fire. I love your license plate, too!
