yeah im probly gonna fab it up myself as a new bought one will be 900 + shipping etc.

so i will probly fab up a high aproach angle rear bumper and attach this tire holder to replace the tailgate entirely, and yeah the tire will sit right where the license plate is so that will be relocated as well.

for 900 bucks you can fab up 12 of them yourself! It might not be as purity as the cnc machined one but I will bet work just as well

there you go I'm sure if you get good enough people will take orders. I have had a few friends want a swing away like mine I told them I'm not making them for cheap! i figure 600 bucks per is fair for a custom tailgate cheaper then shipping sometimes!

Howdy all. I'm new here and found this thread on a google search.

I don't know if any of you guys are still on this forum - this thread is pretty old. I was hoping to get some info on the Bronco swing away rack mod for a 2002 F150.

Look forward to hearing from any of you.

Default Tire mount

Thank you!

Might be a while before you get an answer, guy hasn't been on since august of last year.
If I had to guess it was second hand locally or through a salvage yard of some sort.
