Jeepers !

as you know i built my front bumper instead of forkin over the cash for it, so now its finally time to get the rear one done too. im lookin for Pics of what people have, and perhaps some custom ones to base mine off. Ive been browsing the web for a lil but im lookin for one that really catches my eye.

1. No Spare Swing out
2. Gotta Have place to mount Shackes/reciever.

Have you done the cut and fold on the rear 1/4s yet? If not, do that first, then build the bumper to protect that area as well.

See here:

he wants them for his blazer im assuming... plenty of places have them for xjs... make sure you tie enough into the frame rails especially if your gonna put a reciever on there. ill be making my rear bumper soon enough too but i want a tire swing out... you still interested in my safari rack and spare tire holder when the time comes?

I took mine off within the first year and haven't put it back on....picked up a total of ~1.5 mpg after removing the rack and crossbars. I still have it though, and it will likely make it's way back onto my new XJ in due time.
