Default ACE Bumper w/tire carrier

2014 rubicon unlimited, looking for back bumper with tire carrier. I like the way Ace looks but don't know anything about Ace. Looking for good solid bumper.

Doesn't get any more solid than the ace pro series. I've ran 5 different carriers on jks and the ace was the quietest by far. It is heavy, but my MC coils did not sag from it.

I have the Ace rear bumper with the tire carrier and their relatively new jerry can accessory

I love my Ace rear bumper with the tire carrier, my Ace front bumper and my Ace rock rails!

Btw the only place I could find the good metal jerry cans was Morris 4x4

That is the dynomax axle back dual. I ran it because the MC sway bar drop brackets put my muffler and sway bar in constant conflict. Rattle!!!

If you have any Ace questions let me know, I have absolutely nothing to do with them, but I bought their rock rails, loved them, and then back bumper/tire carrier and then two front bumpers (I bought a mid width one, but then when I went to 37's I had to get a stubby version of the mid width)
