For the drivers side mount, I took a spare mount, cut it in four places and rotated them until they were where I wanted them. Then welded them back together. Works great. Looks factory.
Look for the newer HMMWV bumper tire mount. They have been on the surplus market here and there. They have a nice crank unit on a long scew shaft and it lowers the wheel to to the ground. Adaptable to a truck bumper with a little fabrication.
Thats exactly what i had in mind Ron...... http://images104.fotki.com/v464/phot...pg_orig-vi.jpg
Does the bumper need to be reinforced in any way? My tyres aint the biggest im running on 33,s....

Yes I would brace the stock bumper you have to mount the trailer spindle on the outside edge under the tail light in order to open the tail gate and the stock bumper would have a lot of twist there without some sort of brace! Yes bed liner is the ticket pic was before that step.
