Mojave Cut & Fold Rear Bumper – Jeep Cherokee XJ

[Begster]

While I think you did a nice job and I like the look of it, I think that the nut for the carrier hanging down right there can cause some issues if someone is rockcrawling with this bumper. I know that is a spot where I've hit a few times, and have even destroyed my latch for my swing out due to rocks.

Maybe some protection?

Ill have to look at it in the morning, I don't believe it hangs below the bumper at all. But it would not be hard to put some plating under it possibly.

I hope to be able to have a mount for one, I won't know until I get the latching device done.

Thanks for the orders!

Almost done.
I am having a hard time deciding on the type of latch to use. I think I will try a push pull type.

Full adjustability, Tilts up to 25* on the top setting, has 3 height settings and allows for backspacing adjustment.

I wanted to go with a different look than most the tube carriers out there, this is very strong yet light weight.

Looks good Max! This is supposed to be bolt on right?

I can test it for you...just sponsor me the cost of one Mojave Cut and Fold rear tire carrier bumper.

Monday I am parking my jeep and pulling the rear bumper off to finish the brackets for the tire carrier, I hope to have some teasers out by mid week.

Impatiently tapping foot and staring in direction of Dirtbound Offroad...

After almost 10 months of idea gathering its finally done! The prototype is ready for some testing and will be ready for release within a few weeks.

 

[gunselman]

very nice!

It looks good. Couple questions, how about a better look at that latch and will it fit the non cut and fold version of the bumper?

It is a threaded T handle, I wanted to do a lever based latch but I could not come up with one that would work right without a full length arm.

I got more photos on my camera at the shop, ill post up later.

It should work on both the cut and fold and non, however it will require welding some brackets onto it.

I have a few ideas for spring loaded latch that will be worked on later this week.
