Tomken Machine Swingout Tire Carrier and bumper



Tomken Machine has been around for quite a while now. I got the bumper from a friend of mine and decided to order the swing out and tow pins to finish it out. When I got the parts in I found out that the bumper I had was older than I thought and the original hols that were drilled were off. It took me a bit but I ended up using one hole for and welding up the other and re-drilling to make it straight.

As of a few weeks again Dec 2011 I tested the tow pins out. I used them to anchor the YJ to a tree to pull out a stuck truck. To my surprise they did quite well.
