New member also. Just picked this 1994 Yukon up.
When we first bought it.

Picked up some new body style Silverado wheels.

Installed 2” blocks and cranked the torsion bars a little.
Painted wheels black. Painted the flares and rockers with Berliner.
Also started building a rear tire carrier.

I'm really interested in the rear tire carrier setup you've got. How about a writeup, some detailed pics and maybe some dimensions?

OK, I will take some detailed pics and give you guys a break down of what I used and did. Just remember, I am new to welding and fabricating. Luckily I have a few friends that are certified welders and they over look my progress!

Well yeah- they need to look good if WE'RE gonna buy 'em.

OK so here is a short list for the rear tire carrier. I will take measurements tomorrow. I have some pics of my unpainted welds, a little talled than I would like but you can definitely see that it is getting good *********** to both pieces of metal.

Main frame is 2"x2" 3/16th wall tubing
Hinge is DOM tubing with 1" grade 8 bolt
Hinge frame is 3/16th plate
Plate the lugs are welded to is 1/4" plate
I used some of the 2" tubing to reinforce the bumper, its bolted to the bottom of the bumper, and that tubing runs to the hitch and welded to the hitch. I also have another tube that is bolted to the body. Probably over kill, but it is VERY sturdy!

I have been wanting to fab up a tire carrier for my 2 door and had thought about using the stock bumper like you did. I couldn't decide the best way to brace up the thin stock bumper to handle the weight and keep it from flexing. Any close up pics of the carrier, mounts and even the bracing for the bumper will be VERY much appreciated! Thanks!

Great Looking spare tire mount! Any idea of the total weight?
How robust does it feel when open 90 degrees? Thank You!

I like the Z71 decal, thinking putting one on my Yukon since it has that option installed.

I like them. Since mine is the same color, I would be interested in how it looks if you go that route. They made a dark and a light gray version of them.
