I would like to also request that you consider publishing the plans. Your choice of the dual carrier rack and use of existing bumper are terrific ideas. The impression I have of a nearly factory installed design. Love it!
That looks killer! I love that the design manages to preserve the original bumper, instead of having to replace the entire thing with a much heavier fully-fabricated bumper.
This is absolutely BRILLIANT. This has to be one of the nicest looking and best-conceived designs I've ever seen. I love how you've preserved the original lines of the car. Perfectly functional, but so tasteful and understated compared to the common approach (in the U.S. at least) of replacing the entire bumper cover with steel tubes (which ends up revealing a bunch of ugly stuff that's normally hidden). I also love how snugly everything fits right up against your rear hatch rather than hanging several inches out as do many of the other solutions I've seen. Wow. Really amazingly nice work. My only question: I saw the lock on the jerry can, but any sort of anti-theft system planned to keep the spare tire from walking away?
Many thanks ! I'm very glad to hear all of that ! And we really think the same way ... ahaha I wanted to keep the stock bumper and to make the less cut possible in it. I also wanted to keep everything centered and tight against the hatch for weight distribution. I also wanted (I wanted a lot of things ahaha) to keep the taillights clear for obvious safety reasons. All of this made the build a bit more difficult and it's a tight fit to open the hatch. But we made it and everything work (and look !) nice. So I'm very happy with it 😉
Zut! J'étais persuadé que tu avais démonté le pare-choc pour le remplacer par un modèle offrant un meilleur angle d'attaque! Perdu! 😆 En tout cas, c'est du super matos! Un très beau boulot de fait, le rendu est super! En plus d'être pratique, le caractère baroudeur de ton forester est plus qu'affirmé, bravo! 👏
Merci beaucoup 🙏 Mais oui, c'est raté, le pc d'origine est toujours là ! Je voulais garder le côté stock 😬 et puis en vrai, ce qui limite vraiment l'angle de sortie c'est l'attelage ... mais il protège bien aussi !
I have an 03 Forester and I am planning on a similar bumper, but I’m incorporating a 2” receiver hitch. My Forester will be a Swiss Army knife as I want it to be a overlander/daily/track car, it has to be modular. I already have a Land Rover D1 build that will ultimately be my overlander.
Very nice ! The receiver hitch are not very popular here that's a shame, it's a great system ... Thank you for your comment and good luck with your build !
I must say that your tailgate hitch is so much better looking, less materials used which means it weighs less and quick n easy open/close operation. You two should patent your idea. Top job you guys. I'll know who to ask if I want one lol...
That looks really good Jordan, great job done guys! The tyre looks awesome on the rear! The Foz is looking even more rugged 😃 Well done to everyone involved. OB#17170
Ahahaha yes Vincent, I still can open my trunk, I need it ! BUT ! You are right to ask ! This is a tight fit, especially with how we made it. Because I wanted to keep my taillights clear (safety first) and keep the mass on the middle of the car. So the arms are really not far away from the trunk. But everything work fine 😉
Wow jordan! That thing looks seriously neat! Very well made. I have a similar design swinging arm like that, but mine is bolted on the the tow hitch for easy removal. And it carries a large barbecue instead of a spare tire :p Nice video as always man
Fantastic ! Love dyi projects , just did my roof rack for the 4runner Couldn't justify 1200 bucks for a sturdy one when i can weld and am decent enough at fabrication to hurt myself. Next will be this exact same project after looking at the prices for bumper tire carrier for it . Only thing i saw that you didn't do was use primer before painting ? Looks great and sturdy bravo .
Thanks ! And you are right ... You better build it yourself 👊 I used very tough graffiti spray cans (I also repainted the whole car with it) and you don't need primer with that. I just put a first layer of anti rust stuff on the carrier (the part under the bumper) to prevent any rust issues in the futur
Looks great! Bet it's nice not having to deal with the spare in the trunk like I do. Also, I am not very observant! I didn't realize you had painted your Forester. I assumed that the Tan color was just an option for Euro cars. Similar to how the brilliant brown Outbacks was a limited run.
Yes ! My trunk looks huuugue now ahaha And yes, it took you some times but got it ! ahaha I repainted my foz by myself in desert tan 👊 way better like this !
Really a great project. I've been thinking about something like this for my Jeep Cherokee but this is probably a little beyond my fabrication abilities.
Man that turned out great. Wish I had the tools and skills to make one for my outback. But unfortunately I don't lol. Oh and btw this was recommended a year later of this build.. A year later! I subbed to your channel. Great content and love what you've done to your Forester
I love the spare tire carrier I wish I had something like that for my Crosstrek I know there is the Wilco hitch adapter but you're is far better, no relocating the license plate or light and keeping the original bumper it looks great and thanks for keeping the videos coming.
The wilco is not the best but it's a quick and easy solution ! Anyway thank you for your comment ! And I really do my best to keep the video coming every weeks 👊
Brian Mansfield it's kinda hard on the treks to keep the license plate in the same location. When I built my bumper for my trek I couldn't figure out a way to keep it there. Relocated it to on my bumper with a folding mount. It's on my IG @chris.trek
this is inspiring me to rig up one on my 01 foz. i just started to learn to weld on my own as well. so, this project will take a lot of time if i decided to tackle it. btw, really nice setup. love it. on a different note, i need to get me a pair of etnies shoes. used to rock them as well. haha
Friggin amazing work! One question that I wish I knew the answer to is why the rear triangle behind the spare tire mount was made so high up on the top point. Its hard to tell but it looks like the top point goes higher than the center of the hub of the spare wheel. Seems like any length of metal above the center line of the hub would be unecesary but I'm sure there's a legitimate reason for that being there. The triangle mount its self with the three anchor points to the swing arm looks plenty strong so not sure why the extra length was added to the tire mount. Either way it looks really nice and is my favorite mod to your Foz so far! keep it up!
Thanks mate! There is absolutely a reason for it! And it's that we screw up the first time and the spare wheel was way too high and we couldn't open the hatch anymore 😂 So we lowered the mounting point of the wheel and didn't cut the extra metal on top 😉
Hi, great build, i love it! I want to make for my forester but i have one question , at 03:03min to 03:09min of the video welder weld something in tha chassis of the car but the frame for the spare tire is removeable so what is he weldind there ? Greeting!
I have watched this video about 5 times, I have never welded but i really want to try this, thank you for the confidence. Can you share where you got the hinges and latches?
Ahah i have a Forester just like yours in project in my head, thats funny i just discoverd yoir channel. There might be in somme years 2 quite similar forester in France
Ah man thats so nice. Would love to have that for my Forester. What tire size do you have that it doesnt fit in the original spare wheel location? I will soon go for 205/75r15 General Grabbers AT3's. Hope I can make it fit. Maybe deflated.
Man, that thing looks GOOD brother!!! 😁 I would love to have similar on our FJ (Cruiser), would be lots nicer, especialyl with the extra ability to haul gas cans (the FJ is a thirsty beast, and has only a 16 gallon or so sized fuel tank, LOL!). Great video, my friend! 👍😁
Jordan, I've watched this a few times now and that rear carrier certainly is the cats whiskers (UK slang for excellent). How ,one did it take your friend to fabricate that carrier approximately ?
@@ALNSMOVERLAND Yes sorry, how long and what would it cost to general public ? That slang term i used is in actual fact "The dogs bo##ocks" but I can't say/spell it out anymore than I have but you get the idea... lol. P.s. a bit crude I know.

@@ALNSMOVERLAND I'll be showing this to my Father an off roader and welder/shop guy. He will be interested in this build and off road video .
Pretty cool..i would add a 'plate' that flips up as a mud guard when up and a table top when flipped down.
Really dig that, nice to see fellow overland bound members working together and sharing a killer project
That's the spirit ! Thank you, I'm glad you liked it
Great job..you put back the original bumper which preserves the originality of the car !!!!
Good design greta idea !
Thanks 🙏
Amazing idea with original bumper. Cause, some people use costume bumper to make a tire carrier. You're fantastic
Thanks! I really wanted to keep the original bumper for a clean look 👍
Yeah, that's a clean look & can cut weights rather than using a costume bumper
That's good work, Jordan and Robert!
Your Forester now have a strong back side like a frame truck!
Thanks you my friend 🙏 Yes that's really strong now 💪
ALNSM OVERLAND I hope we are meeting some day, my brother!
That looks killer! I love that the design manages to preserve the original bumper, instead of having to replace the entire thing with a much heavier fully-fabricated bumper.
Thank you! I'm very happy with how we manage to do that!
@@ALNSMOVERLAND do you know how much everything weighs?
The whole carrier is around 30kg (65lbs) which is (I guess) in the norm
@@ALNSMOVERLAND wow, that seems super reasonable. Considering that's sprung weight, that's nothing. 😃
Your friend is an excellent craftman, respect.
Oh yes! He can do anything heheh

This is absolutely BRILLIANT. This has to be one of the nicest looking and best-conceived designs I've ever seen. I love how you've preserved the original lines of the car. Perfectly functional, but so tasteful and understated compared to the common approach (in the U.S. at least) of replacing the entire bumper cover with steel tubes (which ends up revealing a bunch of ugly stuff that's normally hidden). I also love how snugly everything fits right up against your rear hatch rather than hanging several inches out as do many of the other solutions I've seen. Wow. Really amazingly nice work.
My only question: I saw the lock on the jerry can, but any sort of anti-theft system planned to keep the spare tire from walking away?
Many thanks ! I'm very glad to hear all of that !
And we really think the same way ... ahaha
I wanted to keep the stock bumper and to make the less cut possible in it. I also wanted to keep everything centered and tight against the hatch for weight distribution. I also wanted (I wanted a lot of things ahaha) to keep the taillights clear for obvious safety reasons.
All of this made the build a bit more difficult and it's a tight fit to open the hatch. But we made it and everything work (and look !) nice.
So I'm very happy with it 😉
Oh and yes, at the moment, I have nothing to secure the spare. And I guess that anti theft lug nuts are not enough ... So I'm gonna fix this quick
ALNSM OVERLAND for my spare carrier I made a tube that runs through the wheel and a trailer hitch bar lock. Worked really well
Yeah, very strict law enforcement with very serious punishment for criminals.
BAD ASS
Thanks sir 👊
