Default Gen 2 LOD rear w/ 35's

Anyone running a Generation 2, LOD rear bumper with 35's? Looking for a picture of the rear to see if the "A" frame sets higher than the tire.

Thanks,

With a 35" tire on the Gen 2 tire carrierand the tire set at the lowest mount on the tire carrier you can't see the tire carrier. The Gen 2 tire carrier is a lot shorter that the Gen 1. We did this for visibility out the rear window. It actually gives a pretty good view out the rear window. Send us a PM if you want a pic.

Well I got a reply but no photo

..........From Chris at LOD ..................

Yeah now the tire carrier is a square shape and the tire hides it well, on the Gen 2. Thanks for your interest. Let us know if you have any other questions.

Thanks for your assistance,

Chris, if you could post us a picture of the Gen 2 and a 35 that would be great. Or if you would like I can e-mail you and post the pic.

Thanks

I would like to see a pic as well. I saw WOL's and it looked good, but I didn't pay too much attention to the A frame. Maybe because he has 37's.

LOD.... do we have to mount the tire lower for more visablity out the rear. I want it high like WOL's for clearance wheeling. The higher the better.

Her is a old prototype pic of the Gen 2 tire carrier with a 35" tire. The tire covers the Gen 2 tire carrier very well and gives good visibility with a big tire.
