    Only down side but that’s with any swing out is going to be parking structures and accessing through your tailgate.

    I rarely need access to my tailgate area day to day. And I haven’t had an issue with space yet, as far as camping goes

    OP, if you're still in the market definitely check out Bay Area Metal Fabrication

    https://www.bayareametalfab.com/BUMPERS_c_23.html

    Don't have experience with the BAMF bumpers but I hope to change that in the nearish future.
    I am eyeing the high-clearance dual swing-out with bolt-on uprights so I can take them on/off as needed.
    Soooo sweet and sooo beefy, but ya gotta pay to play!

    I will say the BAMF skids are thick and well made.
    I got the LCA skids and the 'trilogy' (front, mid, t-case).
    A precision fit all around!

    built. Took some inspiration from the war Fab but built and reinforced the hell out of this, and added the swingout of course!

    Ya I like the war fab especiallly for the price. Was close to buying but couldn’t live with no swing arm lockout and losing license plate and log it for it. Otherwise I would have purchased Black Friday

    Dumb question, but I'm seeing some rear swing out's offer to have the tire mounted vertically, or at a slight angle...

    Why would I want one over the other? I get how they are different, I just don't understand **why** they are different.

    I dont know what the right reason is, but personally I beleive its to gain a bit more clearence. The tire at an angle seems to clear a bit better coming off a ledge or something compared to straight up and down.
