Bumper is on. Now to figure out how to route the exhaust and get to my spare tire hole...

That look amazing !

There's only been a handful of less that have been able to successfully retain the spare and run that bumper. This is why I don't run it on my burb. May the force be with you looks great, though!!!

I'm just gonna bring it to a muffler shop and say cuff off the resonator and route to both sleeves. If they can't do if I'll move on to the next and so on and so forth until someone figures it out lol.

Bend it out of the way more, add a heat shield, and hope it doesn't get too hot

And then mod your bumper to allow you to lower and raised your spare

TYF Baller has not one but TWO build threads.

Dump the spare, that's why they have roadside assistance. I ripped my bracket off long time ago

I'll suggest this to the muffler shop. Thanks!

I kept the square piece. My plan is take a piece of cardboard and draw a template of the cut out off my original 07-14 standard esky bumper. Then dremel out the exact piece out and clip in the original square piece that covers that hole. Not sure if it'll work bc the cover was behind the hitch cover whereas now it will be outside to the right of the hitch cover. Showing at all times not hidden.... Hope I don't botch the new bumper...

I just can't do it I road trip too much to not have a spare. Just drove to Orlando FL and Gatlinburg TN and Friday driving to Vail CO. 12-20 hour drives need spares. Of course anytime I have cell signal roadside assistance would be immediately called but I just like the comfort of knowing in case I don't I won't be stuck in the middle of nowhere.
