I spent some time working on a swing arm this weekend. I'll finish it up next weekend.
it has a couple of concepts.
1. adjustable tire mount (31-37 inch tire)
2. hold 2 5gal jerry cans
3. hold hi-lift
4. tray for recovery gear or cooler
5. * hinged parellel to the door
I wanted the swing arm to linked to the door so that when you open the door the swing arm will open 5% more as the door opens. This has a couple benefits..... being hinged to the body makes it more stable and takes away vibrations. when you lock your door the swing arm is locked also. plus if takes away from having a latch thats in the way on your bumper.
so far im very happy. on the left side there will be a small bolt on tray that can fit recovery gear or a small cooler. on the right side the hi-lift will mount vertical.
PS....my bumper is green because i only have a etching primer on it
