Spare Tire
Add a spare tire carrier to your bumper and get it off that quarter panel. We offer two unique racks designed to hold up to a 37” spare tire with 5.25" backspacing* One rack puts the spare tire behind the passenger which mimics the stock location of the spare tire and the other centers and lowers the spare tire for a bit more visibility.
*If you are running a spare wheel with larger than 5.25” backspacing, you will need to use wheel spacers
Fuel Storage
Add some fuel storage to your bumper. You can add a second swing out or, if you have the centered tire rack in mind, we can add a basket right next to the tire carrier, putting both solutions on one convenient swing-out rack.

*These are access holes for use of the Hi-Lift jack. We do not currently offer a solution for Hi-Lift jack storage.
**This statement applies to our Fully Welded edition. The other editions require several hours of welding and grinding. Additionally, If you order a body lift, there may be a couple holes you have to drill.
What is included:
Receiver Hitch
Receiver Hitch
Our 2” unrated receiver hitch is capable of pulling the stock recommended weight for your Bronco.
This statement applies to our 1/4" bumper. If you plan on using the receiver to tow, please use your best judgement.
Our hitches are unrated but can support the stock towing capacity of a Bronco (we do not claim this on f-series trucks) as our bumper mounting system bolts on the vehicle frame.
Small and lightweight single axle trailers are typically safe to tow behind your Bronco.
If you tow something that you shouldn't be towing with your Bronco, you could seriously injure yourself or others should something fail.
We are not liable for any damage, loss or injury.

XLT / Eddie Bauer Models
XLT / Eddie Bauer Models
We created more space between the rear bumper and the open tailgate because of some reports that the XLT / Eddie Bauer Trim was hitting the cam bale.
IF you run into an issue with the tailgate trim hitting the cam bail when the tailgate is open, you can run a new cable stop (approx 17") on your tailgate. Otherwise, you will have to notch the trim.
Mounting to F-Series Trucks
Mounting to F-Series Trucks
There have been several people who have successfully put these bumpers on pickup trucks. Please keep in mind that these bumpers are made for the Ford Bronco and the stock axles they come with. These bumpers will fit on F-Series pickups however the frame is not the same, and sometimes the bolt pattern for the spare tire will be different.
Mounting the rear bumper to a pickup truck is possible, however it may require moderate to heavy modification to install the bumper properly.
You will have to order the correct wheel plate to make the spare tire fit. 8 lug wheel plates are an additional $45.
The frame mounts will also need to be ordered unwelded and you will need to modify/create a custom bracket for mounting.
We DO NOT recommend putting these bumpers on pickup trucks unless you have an experienced fabricator contracted for the job. We also DO NOT provide installation assistance for this application.
