DIY Tire Carrier for Mojave Rear Bumper | Jeep Cherokee XJ (1984-2001)

Looking to add a tire carrier to your Mojave rear bumper? Now you can. This DIY kit includes all the components to build the tire carrier arm, reinforce the bumper and install the latch. 

Advanced welding and fabrications skills recommended, some grinding and fit-up may be required to complete the assembly. 

These swing arms will come with a general guide for assembly, but it is not a Lego set and will require some work to build.  Parts are CNC cut from 7 GA steel and bends are slotted for easy fabrication without a press brake. 

To install this will require removal of bumper, one tail light cap, grinding and drilling to make provisions for the latch. Assembly of the arm will require welding, grinding, press for installing bushings and basic hand tools.
