You have to make it yourself or have a fabrication place do it for you. You could also try using the bronco2 swing out spare tire carrier...you will have to modify it a little though.

Build a bumper with a swing out on it. That's always the best option. Gotta have some fab skills or some cash though. I may try the Bronco II swing out idea... I think I would rather have stuff mounted to the bumper, not the sheet metal though...specially with a 35 haning off it...

made this one in an afternoon and at a cost of $54.00 for steel. I took the bronco one off because with a full size spare and jack mounted on the swing gate. I was getting to much weight on the stock one.

I don t know how to pick up photos or links here.... but you can do a search for "Millitarized Explorer", and u can see my solution!!!
I have had it for years.

can any body send me some plans to take to a shop to get it fabbed?

I think if you've got to pay someone to do it, just find a bunch of good pics of the ones you like and take them along. Anyone good with a torch and a welder should be able to come up with something for you. Plans for this are pretty simple and a decent fab shop should get something banged together for you pretty quick...
