80 series swing out tire carrier bumper (1 Viewer)

sean, awesome work! I was curious if you have every fabricated a light weight tube version? if no, have you ever considered? i doubt it but figured its worth a shot to ask!

thanks for your time, Nick

I have not made a tube rear bumper yet for the 80, but it sounds like a good idea for those who want something light that offers good protection and a big exit angle. swingouts on one? I dont think it would be rigid enough to handle the load of a big heavy spare, without getting complicated and not so light weight anymore.

I would love to buy the plans if they were available so I could have a winter project for my plasma cutter.

I think u can do it! Maybe just use some bigger DOM tube for the swing out? Or square for the swing out ? I believe in u!

Sean, how long is the wait on the bumper complete with all the goodies?

 

[sean]

wait is about a month right now on a dual swingout bumper with all bells and whistles. I changed the tire swingout design to fit and hold the jack a little better. i think i finally found the best way to hold the damn thing. but I though that last time, and the time before and the time before and the time before, but this time I finally got it and it is my final answer for now.

I am really getting attached to my plans for it too, and dont think anyone other than myself could interpret them anyways, so I dont think i want to sell any copies of them right now, other than the ones that I will sell (for a dual swingout), for 1850 plus shipping(200-350) and come in a large crate that measures 6'long x 3'wide x 2' tall but doesn't include any actual written plans!

Thanks Guys!

One last question. Will the rear mudflaps work with rear bumper?

 

[sean]

they will work, just need a little trim with razor to get it to fit around the side protector better.

You have no idea how happy I am with this thing!! It is a piece of art, I almost don't want to scratch it... Almost. I could not be happier with the way it turned out, the new high lift mount if genius! And the basket re in forcemeat worked great and supported me standing in it, though I don't recommend it lol.

Here are some pics from my "photo shoot" with the new bumper. Don't be a creep and stalk my license plate number.











p.s. Bruno, I'm flattered you recognized my rig

Since you don't have plans for sale how bout packing up the plate metal for a non swingout for a guy who'd like a winter project to weld?

 

[Schnieb]

Just got a Sean bumper installed. Piece of art is an understatement, this thing is awesome!
If anyone is contemplating getting one, get off the fence you won't be sorry. Sean is a top notch guy not to mention fabricator. Thanks again Sean...I need sliders, lol.

never built a bumper or anything for a 40 series yet, if I could get my hands on a 40 for a week or two a am pretty sure I could come up with something. anyone interested?

 

[Alexr88]

I am interested, If you ever decide to built one for FJ40.

 

[sean]

cool, I want to build one, i just need to get my hands on a 40 for a week or two to figure out how to build one.

 

[cool breeze]

Could you update the first post with pricing info please. Dont feel like reading 12 pages bc i am lazy

Id be interested in buying the swing outs only and fit them to my bumper, do you offer those separately?

 

[sean]

for a dual swingout bumper powdercoated like on devildogcruiser25 on pg 15 it is $1850

for a single tire swingout bumper powdercoated $1400

I will sell the swingouts only, $400 for the tire and $300 for the ladder, and $450 for ladder with removable 2 or 3 jerrycan/cooler carrier. with a 4x4 labs spindle and hub assembly add $80

thanks Guys!
