AEV makes one and so does Expedition One. I have the Expedition One, and so far I love it...no rattles, no rusting and very solid.

I know the AEV tire carrier does. The spindle secures to the frame rail through either the factory bumper or an AEV bumper.

I believe one of the new LoD Gen 3's ties into the gate as well.

It mounts directly to the frame. You then have to cut a hole through the stock bumper and some of the inside to mount the arm through it. Don't think it was meant to work with bumpers other than the stock and the aev bumper. You could contact aev and ask?
