I am really on the fence with this one. If I get this front bumper, I would really like to get the matching rear. To my knowledge, the rear bumper does not have a tire carrier, so It would seem that this could be a problem putting the spare on the factory location, if I was planning on a 35 inch tire. I have heard reports of bending when putting a 35 inch or greater on the stock location

Shoot I didnt even pay attention to the OP, lights with it at that price is pretty good, even without the lights that is a good price. This sponsor forum is killing me. You will most likely be getting another call from me on Monday Dave Do you carry the rear to go with the front?

I was pretty much in the same dilemna, until I used my hi-lift on the front. Now I know I want the same capabilities for the rear. Sadly as yet there is no tire carrier for it and you will need one for 35"+ wheels.

Now there are other bumpers that come close to the ARB rear in style but most appear to be lower and eat up the space where your stock trailer or hook attachement sits. They also stick out a bit more and extend your overhang. Not by much mind you but they do. You can buy an after market tire carrier that also holds Gas cans and a rack that bolts on independently but in my case I think I will build my own swing away tire carrier (with attachments in mind)

The rear does not have a place for backup lights either as a couple due but it is simple enough to attach lights/antennae's to metal bumpers.

Just my personal two cents worth.

The LOD Rear bumper with carrier looks great with the ARB. That is the way I am going to go. The nice thing about jeeps is that many different manufacturers' parts all look good together. If your jeep is black then they are all custom painted too!

Just picked up a front ARB and rear LOD from Dave, cant wait. I think they will look great together. Plus with the pair of IPF lights, guys/gals, this is a great deal.
