Some more progress today. Decided to keep it simple and got a smaller pipe to slide inside the one on the bracket as a spindle. It will be locked with a hitch pin. I welded the swing arm and the first part of where the tire will be mounted.

Teaser Hopefully it will be done on Saturday, so far it feels and looks good!

Finally done! I still need to add a reinforcement and work a bit more on the locking solution but it works! It ended up a bit taller than how I've seen the oem but I'm ok with it.

Finally done and wrapped up. Ill keep and eye on everything to make sure it wont crack. Ended up reinforcing the middle bumper support to lock the swing arm with a hitch pin. That way it will allow a bit of movement when the frame twists opposite to the body. To secure the whole thing from getting lifted I welded a smaller pipe inside the swing pipe, welded a nut on it and secure it agains the static pipe with a washer and bolt. I still need to grind my awful looking welds and paint it.

Its been a week since I completed this thing so I took the swing arm and mount off to check for any cracks or bent bolts. Everything is holding up fine so I painted it and added the Mitsubishi logo that I had laying around.

A bit of progress... The small ones require a support bracket to be welded to the bumper support so Ill have to wait a bit to get it done.
