I love that you made it yourself.
Thank you!
Best spare tire mount ever for an old flatfender
Thank you!
nice job, I love the ingenuity in your projects.
Thank you!
I built my tire carrier using the front axle spindle bolted to the tire carrier, bearings, hub and drive flange. That way I had the extra parts, especially the bearings. And the spare did rotate. Kinda funny.
That’s a cool idea!
That Jeep looks like it was nickled and dimed together!! And it’s freaking perfect!!!!!
Haha it’s had a hard life! I appreciate it!
This 3b gets better and better with every video!
Thank you!
Absolutely amazing quality work🎯. I really love your videos please keep em coming 👍
Really appreciate it!
Another great idea that I am going to copy for both my cj5 and my cj3a. Thanks for the video
Let me know if you have any questions! Thank you!
Awesome! Great problem solving and creativity!!
Thank you!
I did a bumper similar to that , it was 3x5x1/4 in thick tubing and used 5/8 plate for the mounts to the frame. The 5/8 plate I brought through the bumper tube was the clevis mounts for my recovery points with a 2” receiver hitch. It worked out very well and strong as hell. It was on a 1967 Jeep J3000 truck. I towed a 30’ trainer with a 43 gpw and a 73 J4000 on it and the truck and hitch never batted an eye at it.
Very nice build
That’s awesome! Thank you!
I am just about to start my 1963 Willy’s jeep and your videos have giving me good ideas and great to toos
Glad to hear it!
I have about a million questions for you and would love the help with mine if maybe there is some way I could get ahold of you when I get stuck on something that would be amazing
@@jeremybynum175 Hit me up on Instagram or seven.bar.salvage@gmail.com id be happy to help!
Just found your channel and I'm digging your building style, also can't wait to watch your previous videos. I will definitely borrow some of your ideas in building new bumpers for my 1988 Dodge Raider. Thank you for sharing.
Those raiders are cool! Welcome to the channel!
Same here just found your channel. Working on a 88 yj Wrangler project. Looking for some parts right now.
Very well done....Your fab skills are getting better and better....It is so cool when you build your own parts..And they turn out great.Great felling inside.The more you do the faster you will become at figuring out a problem.Started out like you at 14 years old...Now i am 68 years old and have i built some projects....Retired Millwright/Machinist..And yes you can build a lot of cool projects with a small amount of tools..Great job...A+......
Thank you for all the kind words! Really appreciate it!
I have to make my bumper soon. You have given me lots of ideas. Thanks
Thank you for watching!
Great video glad you posted keep them coming thanks
Thank you!
Love the build. I’m planning something similar for my 71’ CJ5.
Really appreciate it!
You do some fine fabrication, young man. I found your channel after deciding to get back into Jeeps after about 35-40 years without one. I look back on some of the things I used to do tweaking Jeeps and I wonder how I did it. I suspect you’ll look back one day and appreciate the energy you spent as a young man as well. I was in your neck of the woods last year. Can’t wait to get back.
I appreciate it! Glad to hear it!
Hey I just found your channel and really like this build. I have bumperets on my 75 CJ
and this is a great idea I think you gave me the motivation to build a strong bumper.
Thank you for watching!
Came out nice, I like the hub idea.
Thank you!
Great work, you are very skilled and creative. Enjoyed the quality and detail that went into your video. I have a 50 CJ2a, and am new to your +channel. Looking forward to watching all your videos!
Thank you for watching I appreciate it!
I love your content. So helpful with my build
Thank you for watching!
Nice work, you could put a upper brake light in that hub hole. Good to see someone working that ain’t got all the fancy shop equipment.
Good idea! I’m always doing everything on a tight budget so I try and make my dollar go as far as I can. Thank you!
very nice work my friend, thanks for posting, giving me some ideas.
Thank you!
Very cool job! Now I gotta get me a plasma cutter!
It’s one of the best tools in the shop!
Congrats! very well done !!!
Thank you!
Great work,I’m the same way with buying tools sometimes it’s hard to justify buying them if you’re not going to use it much. I’ve been more open to renting lately. I really like how you made the bend in the pipe. Thanks for the video
I like using projects as an excuse to by new tools but only to a certain limit. I’m like you a lot of odd ball stuff just rent it. Thank you!
Love your videos. I am new to Jeeps. Just bought a 1960 CJ5 rust bucket. Can't wait to get started. Keep the videos coming.
Sounds like a great one to start with! Thank you for watching!
@@SevenBarSalvage The jeep has more rust than clean metal. Probably be cheaper to buy a new tub but it wouldn't be as much fun. I'm getting so many good ideas from your videos.
@@douglasedwards6636 I’m glad to hear it!
I am impressed with the wonderful custom ♪
Thank you!
Nicely done. I ran into the same challenge with the Destaco clamp in the EMS kit. It is designed to operate in a *90 fashion. Had to get a different clamp because I waited til the end of my build to engineer the clamp on my dual swing out.
I’m glad I’m not alone. Thank you!
I’m glad I’m not alone. Thank you!
I used their kit on my TJ, I set it up so the clamp is pulling down and in at the same time to the swing arm is really jammed into the poly stop block. I also put bumpers on the tire carrier so they would contact the tailgate when latched. Everything locks together with a little preload on it and the whole thing is rock solid. Zero wiggle on the freeway or the Rubicon and it still opens easy with no drama.
@@handbannana3610 Great ideas! I might add the blocks between the tailgate and tire I was trying to think of a third point to minimize wiggle. Thanks!
I'm a new subscriber and I really liked how you made your tire rack for your spare tire. It came out looking fantastic. I would have liked to see it open with the tire on it but there's always next time lol. Keep up the great work and God Bless you and your family. Have a Happy New Year. 🥂💯👍👍🙏🙏✌😊✌
Welcome to the channel! I always forget something! Thank you Happy New Year!
Jacob nice build on the rear bumper,hitch mount and tire carrier with the hub is a fantastic idea.Your skills and ideas are fantastic. Keep up the great work. Thanks for sharing.☺️☺️☺️👍👍👍👍
Really appreciate the kind words! Thank you for watching!
EXCELENTE TRABAJO !!!! UN SALUDO DESDE ARGENTINA !!!
Thank you glad to hear from you!
outstanding!
very nice project ... love it
Thank you!
Great job like your way to bend tha tube.appreciations from jeep m38a1 owner Denmark
Thank you!
Very cool!
Great video! I like the jeep build.
Thank you!
"fancy tools" (19:40) and Harbor Freight (14:37) go together like aluminum and mercury.
Nice build.
Haha thank you!
Really nice job on the whole thing. I've still got the original Jeep towbar on my 3B, but seriously considering something like what you built.
The original draw bars look cool but aren’t super practical, you can’t go wrong either way! Thank you!
Very cool! I like it 👍
Thank you!
Back in the mid 70's my Dad built a rear bumper/spare tire carrier/gas can holder. It was on our 1969 Jeep CJ-5 The Jeep had the factory 10 gal. tank under the driver's seat and we found at a swap meet an aftermarket 10 gal. tank that lived between the rear frame rails. The carrier had the spare mounted in the middle like yours but the gas cans where mounted on either side of the spare so when you looked at the Jeep from the back you saw the narrow side of the gas can. With this setup the Jeep could hold 30 gals. of gas.
Dang that’s a lot of range! Very cool!
@@SevenBarSalvage Yeah it was. And to top it off the Jeep had the factory installed Buick 225 V-6 with a Warn Over Drive. It was what I learned to drive a standard transmission on and took my drivers lic. test in and somehow scored 100%. My high school friends and I had a lot of good times in that Jeep sadly the Jeep and some of those friends are no longer with us.
Man, great job!
Thank you!
I LIKE YOUR RIDE COWBOY / GOOD LUCK WITH IT / PS ;; NICE JOB ON THE BUMPER AND TIER CARRIER NO B/S , REAL NICE JOB
I appreciate it!
Great video! Thanks!
Thank you!
Brilliant job on the rear bumper and wheel holder! Suits the rest of the Jeep, Well done 👍🙄
Thank you!
Dang good job thank for making the video
Thank you!
Nice job.
Thank you!
Nice work
Thank you!
Like it. If you use a postal JEEP flange it has only three bolts. That might give it a unique look. I know I know.... you already have the other one. Thanks for the fun.
Haha it wouldn’t be the first time I cut something off for something cooler… I’ll check it out! Thank you for watching!
Thanks
that jeep was so perfect at first................................
It’s come a long way from the rust bucket it used to be!
Nice work as usual. I think some sponsors need to hook you up with a tube bender!
Thank you! Boy that would be awesome!
How about a mounting a spindle then you could have all the spare parts. Added bonus you can spin it like wheel of Fortune
Haha that’d be cool!
The Jerry can of Petrol is place on the top of the hood and make bracket to hold the jerry can. The oldest Jeep that you have is where the fuel is gravity fed. Yep it is original Like Kaiser-Willys where Overland is sold to R&R company and converted to Juan manufactory of Windsor engined jeep wagons shorty wheel base Quad.
In Southeast Asia, he made the tubular unit called spare tire holder swing sideways. With his welding elbow and straight tubes all together without using the bender so he had many different pipe angle 45 degree and 90 degree and 20 degree elbow. It was why he build nice looking spare tire holder.
The tube bender can also carries the pipe expanders it depends the set.
Thank you!
Good Job!!... man
Thank you!
In side stupni is in orignal bsck side is extra safty.
Awesome!
Thank you!
You did good planning of cut away the flip down spare tire holder tubular and change it into swing type spare tire holder. The tubular could be bent up to 20 tons of exert by the arbor press hold by 1 inch square hole bench vice versus Gantry type bender by the RogueFab 6 or 5 foot maximal height or by Vevor with curved anvil dies includes round groove for pipe size 1 1/2 inch pipe and another die for bender 12 tons jack Eastwood 1 1/4 inch pipe handling by the spoon wrecking bar 6 foot long x 1 inch thick for heavy duty type in your truck or Jeep stop shop. Near my mobile shop crane shop. I don't have that super duty pipe and wrecking bar that weight around 18 pound spoon.
Thank you!
Excelente. Muy bueno. Te felicito
Thank you!
Be careful with that welded on hub, the cast hubs get brittle when you weld it and can break off on hard bumps. I did the same thing and lost my spare tire on the highway. Maybe run a supporting rod from the steel frame to the back of one of the steel wheel studs? Your bubba bends came out really nice!
When I welded it up I was wondering how strong the weld would be into the cast. The guy I saw do it has been running it a few years without issue but I think you have a good idea also supporting from the studs. Thank you!
Maybe just put a blabking plate at both sides and a bolt thru to tie everything together, just as safety
@@sash328 Good idea!
Great job partner 👍 Tell your dad Blake Shelton hi.
Haha I’ll do it 😂
THE WHEELS
I love how they turned out!
Man I like your style and work! Great job. I hope to get started on mine soon and use a lot of what you’ve done. Keep it coming.
Thank you for watching!
Nice work kid. Respect. Sub’d
Thank you!
The hole saw for add the spindle hinge of your spare tire holder to the rear bumper. Naw, it needs acetylene and oxygen tanks for making a hole for the spindle to to the work of the rear bumper. The acetylene is more expensive than Mapp Gas 20 Cubic foot. Use the Mapp gas and red glow the rear bumper to make a hole on the top. Then blow oygen fast balst blow then it cuts - it makes hole in one second after prep it with blue torch that made the rear bumper red glow about 15 second but with Mapp gas about 30 sec. Because plasm cutter for thick gauge will take like 2 min or 3 min to cut the hole. The hole saw does not last at all. You are a welder not a sawyer. The hole saw is slow like 5 kinutes to make a hole plus they don't make it anymore called resin holding diamond zirconia grit in the hole saw.
Then use a single cut round file to cut the hole into accurate hole or use the burr bit whetstone with the unremovable Campbell-Hausfeld shank and attach to hi-speed drill's chuck. Thank you.
Thank you!
Hey how are ya? I sure like you channel thank you for the studded knuckle, gas tank steering, seat notch videos. I was looking at the tail lights what are those I would like to get those for my 1969 cj5. Thank you for teaching us, I look forward to your videos. God bless you and yours
Thank you for watching! They come from tractor supply but Amazon has them too here is the link:

@@SevenBarSalvage cool thank you. I have a 1969 cj5. The previous owner put in a custom tank in the rear but it is kinda jimmy rigged. I was thinking of putting a yj tank, that way it will match the hole cut in the body. Also have to do the seat notch, so thank you for doing that and making videos for all of us to see how to do it. God bless you and yours.
that is sweet
Thank you!
COOL MAN!! Nice work! 👌😎 The CJ is coming along!! I dig the orange rims! what size tires are you using?
Thank you! 32-11.5-15 BFG M/T’s!
süpersin thanks
That turned out great. I'm curious why you didn't just leave the frame mounts long and use them as your recovery points.
Thank you! That was the plan until I found out that frame wasn’t perfectly straight. That far out the angle was too exaggerated I couldn’t make it straight. Good eye!
@@SevenBarSalvage that's how I built the rear bumper for my square body. I figured that's where you were going when you used the 1" for the mount.

That is so well thought out! i just bought '52 Willys. once i get it running, i will need to make a spare tire rack. only problem mounting spare at the rear might block rear sight? what about have it mount on the right rear side, would it block the right vision and offset the turning balance when rounding the corner? of course I know turning any corner requires slower speed. i have seen tire mount on the rear side, but not sure how the handling feel? Ty you for this insightful idea.
The issue I’ve run into mounting it on the side is if you run bigger tires that stick out you have to space out the spare from the body and it creates a lot of leverage on the corner of your Jeep. Stock tires shouldn’t be a problem. Thank you!
better then what i made
👍👍
Muy buen trabajo
Gracias!
You must to do a roll bar same like cj7
👍
Looks awesome, I think I will try to make one for my CJ along with a jerry can holder. On the contrary, what size wheels and tries are you having in this video?
Awesome! 32/11.5/15 bfg mt
So you used nothing from that old tire carrier. I love when we plan things and by the time we are done its completely diffrent. Good job man looks great.
It’s funny how that works! Thank you!

Hello from the USA!
That’s a great video. I’m going to borrow some of your ideas.
Can you tell me what brand and model of plasma cutter you are using? Do you like it? I’m shopping for one now. Looking for recommendations. Thanks.
Thank you! It’s a Lotos brand I can’t remember the model. It’s been great had it over 4 years no complaints. Hope this help!
I am working on my 53 3B. What gas tank are you using. I have been looking, measuring various tanks to mount in the rear. Planning to incorporate the swing away tire mount also.
It’s a cj5 15 gallon tank. I’m running a 1” body lift and 1.75” over stock lift and it’s snug but it looks like it will clear the rear axle. I have 2 videos on the install! Thank you for watching!
لا حاجة الى جركن الوقود فقد يشوه المنظر..
Good point!
Nice build man… where did you research and find the u-bolt sliders or did you custom those as well…? Thanks for any help
Thank you! Yeah I drew them up and had them machined, I have a video on the install! If you’re interested in having the drawing let me know!
@@SevenBarSalvage I’ve had in mind my own ideas of building some but yours looks far better than what I had in mind…I’ve got a 2A that I’m building and don’t think I’ve missed a single video of yours unless you did one on the sliders… truly appreciate your response and any help on the drawing or link to it…might be another good piece of content for you
@@coastalcowboyentertainment6284 seven.bar.salvage@gmail.com shoot me an email I send you the drawing! There’s a video of the rocksliders it’s maybe 8-10 videos back! Really appreciate you watching!
Great video! how is the tire size? thanks
Thank you! 32x11.5x15!
just wondering if ya put a lift on this if so where ya get it at ? Thank you
The springs are super lift 1” over stock (discontinued) and I used some rubicon express 3/4 lift shackles (these are still available)! Thank you!
i found a 1954 3b for sale how you liking yours & going offroad.
Hi , what about the jerry can holders ?
I’ve not decided what to do with those yet!
@@SevenBarSalvage oh i see
It's called "Spatter."
That silent “L” gets me every time…
every single touch is million words equivalent.
very talkative...
Thank you!
You cowboys must run poor tires to need tire carrier like that.
Nice work
Thank you!
I recommend to my friends too..
