1966-1977 Bronco RockSolid Centered Single Rack Rear Bumper (PF303C)
We have heard your requests and have come up with this solution. For some, our traditional single rack rear bumper provides some visibility concerns. Enter our 1966-1977 Bronco rear bumper with centered spare tire carrier. This new design puts the tire in the center of the tailgate and then we lowered it for added visibility while still being able to accept up to a 37" tire.
Like our other tire rack design, this rack is made of 2"x3" x 0.188 wall rectangular tube however we beefed up the pivot bolt from a 5/8" to a 3/4" which means the heims are also 3/4"* and are rated at 15, 850 lbs of static radial load and we took it an extra step by adding our branded pivot brace which just adds an aggressive look to the overall structure. The heims are permanently lubricated which ensures a smooth and easy hinge to maintain. Included with this beefy rack is our fully adjustable cam latch system that will offer many years of rattle free use. This sleek bumper is made from CNC cut ¼” plate steel and offers the best body protection and style for your early Bronco.
With its easy bolt-on installation that requires no welding or drilling, it’s hard to beat. Our design wraps around the rear corners to provide our quality protection and includes a 2” unrated receiver hitch. Our unrated receivers are capable of pulling the stock recommended weight for your Bronco.** You can also opt to delete the receiver for a smooth look or if you are looking for a place to mount your license plate, you can choose our recessed license plate bumper mod when ordering your bumper.
This very durable and modern design comes with access points for use of a hi-lift jack cut into the bumper (this is for USE of a hi-lift jack not for jack storage). Its angular design also makes it easy to use a tow hook or you can add a set of D-ring tabs for the ultimate tow points. Add RotoPax mounts on the back side of the tire carrier to carry extra fuel. (See RTPRX-4G for info on the 4 Gallon RotopaX container.) This product is also offered with an adjustable body lift up to 2″. See below for more details.
NEW!! Rack Lockout System: Tired of your tire carrier swinging around and hitting the side of your truck or swinging back on you when you’re trying to get into the back? This is the answer you have been waiting for! Our new system stops the carrier automatically with our new t-handle pin* system. The t-handles are Anodized Black 1/2″ billet aluminum. The handle slides along a plate until it is in the optimal position and then the pin is released into a slot cut out of the plate. The system is also over-rideable if you want the rack to swing wider than the plate allows, simply pull up on the t-handle and continue pushing it past the plate.
*We do not manufacture the t-handles, they are purchased from another company and incorporated into our lockout system.
Ships as raw steel via truck freight. Kit form is not a flat kit and will not be more economical when shipping.
