Jeep Cherokee rear bumper

[salvageclaus]

Have any of you built a rear bumper for your Cherokee?

If you have, you realized like I did that the factory bumpers are only held on by these wimpy bumperettes that bolt to the rear body panel under the lift-gate and do not tie into the uni-frame.

I have been working on a bracket made of 1 1/4 inch c-channel to tie my bumper into the factory bolt holes for the towing hitch I removed.

If any of you have info on what you have done, I would like to know about it.

Can't help you now but I plan on building new bumpers for my cherokee sometime soon, so if you want to wait a month or two I'll get back to you :p

If you want you can check out the one I built

Where did you get the spindle? Looking to add a tire carrier to my TrailReady bumper since they redesigned it without the tire carrier or trailer hitch.

Thanks

If you look at the website again, I think I listed all of the suppliers for the spindle and latch.
Just click on the names and it takes you to their sites.

its a shame i just now read this I've been tripping over a class3 hitch for my old cherokee for 6 yrs. My father inlaw took it for scrap material last month.

I think you can get all of the answers you're looking for at naxja.org.

You can see pics of my front and rear bumpers at http://www.graphicdesigner.com/2000_Jeep_Cherokee/ I'll see if I can't find the pictures from when I made them and try to find the mounting bracket pictures cause it's hard to explain.
