swing out tire?

[samhain]

does anyone know where I can get a swing out tire carrier for my 99 sport. Cant seem to find one on the web.

All the ones I have seen, including mine are all custom jobs.

Yes, all that i know are Custom done, you could buy one from CoryL, but it replaces your rear bumper and everything.... The Spare Tire carrier i have, woud prolly be the eastiest to make work, but that you would have to find one.... Mine is an Aftermarket one for a 1984 s-10 Blazer, I had to vut soem stuff on mine, and dril la few holes, i used a plasma cutter to do the cutting but a Grander would work,,,,,

Ill post a few pics in a couple minutes....

PEACE

Pictures....

here you can see how the main mount works, it use to be solid peice but you can see where i had to cut around soem of the latching stuff..

and i added 4 bolts instead of the regular 2 it had, also there is a bolt that goes through ther bumper...

this is what holds it closed

and a far away shot

Only really other mod is i extened thew rod that it latches with. trust me this was nto easy, and tool up a whole night cutting and test fittin, and prolly would take longer without a plasma.....
