Hi All,
I need advice on purchasing a rear bumper/tire carrier for my 1992 XJ 4.0. I want a bumper with a bullet-proof tire carrier. My plan is to mount a bike rack on the tire to transport two bicycles. The rack must swing out of the way of the rear hatch without the bikes being removed.
I already have the factory carrier as shown here
but the bikes will fall off when opened and the carrier isn't very sturdy. I've found a possible replacement at Quadratec

but I know there are other commercial units available. Anyone know where to find competitors to Smitty?
Thanks!
Mike
