I will keep this a consideration, but, follow me dream here.

Everyone chime in and tell me where this fails....

Xterra step bumper (the sides of the Xterra)
Xterra swing-out tire carrier and bumper.

Insane? Too much fab work?

I took the spare out from under, as it is no longer the right size, and realized it made a huge difference in departure angle. So, as a spare is kind of important, it wanted to rear mount it.

In my fullest of dreams, it drops down like a tailgate instead of swings out, but I am pretty sure that is just a dream.

Here is my custom one that fall down. Used a Swagman bike rack and modify it to fit my spare tire.
Forget old rusty spare (reason i bought a new one).

How much for the tire carrier by its self? I see you have up 650 for the whole setup. Can you put me in contact with your friend? Thank you!
