I was preparing my 2015 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon for the installation of my new Barricade Trailforce HD Bumper with Tire Carrier.
This rear bumper will allow me to upgrade my tires to a bigger size, eventually. The tire carrier will take the weight off the tailgate.
There are many different types of bumpers to choose from with ExtremeTerrain Rear Bumpers -- but I figured it would look best to have the rear bumper match my front bumper, which I installed last year.

Once the factory bumper was removed, it was a pretty simple process to install the my new rear bumper.
First, I attached the mounting bracket to the inner side of the rear bumper support beam. These bolts are about 5 inches long. It was a tight space in between the muffler and the support beam. By pushing slightly up on the cover over the muffler, the bolts will slide in.
Then I slid the L-Shaped mounting brackets into the frame rails with the nut backing up to the pre-drilled holes in the frame. All the parts fit to the existing holes all ready on the frame. There was no drilling necessary.


Once the bumper was on it was time to thread the supplied bolts to the side bumper support and tighten.

Then I crawled under the Jeep and threaded the nuts onto the bolts and began to tighten all four bolts.
Now that the rear bumper was installed and secure, it was time to get the tire carrier gate installed. First make sure you pull the plastic off the post. It is also good idea to add some grease to the post for a smoother operation. To secure the gate on the post I added the cap and secured it with the allen-head bolt.

Finally, the last step -- install the rear tire carrier by securing it to the rear swing arm. Then adjust it to the desired height.

I couldn't figure out why my tire wouldn't fit at a lower height. Then it hit me the next morning -- DUH!!! The piece is adjustable.

ExtremeTerrain provided the rear bumper with tire carrier for review. No additional compensation received.
All opinions are my own.
