Well as most know im in need of a rear bumper/tire carrier and though I never thought I would shop Bestop's for anything other than a top I think I like this set up and was just wondering your guys thoughts and or suggestions. I do tend to like the buy once cry once (buying right the first time even if cost is higher) policy but the price point dose not seem bad either.

I like the wrap around protection, the 40" tire rating, and the connection to the tailgate so it opens just like the tailgate was stock in one step.
It dose have some mounting points on the back for a jack and what not - though i like my hood mount I could probably fab up some arms to come out and carry other junk, maybe some cans or a rack.
I don't like how the d ring mount drops down for a roller mount but I should be able to chop some of that off without hurting the strength too much if I choose to

Here's a Quadratech link as Bestop's website is less than helpful. http://www.quadratec.com/produ.....402_07.htm

Looks nice to me. After smashing my rear corners I became interested in the wrap around style.

It would look good minus the D mounts or sure.

Um...what?
