I am trying to figure out how to make one for the rear of my 03. Any body done one or have any ideas.

How massive of a rear bumper do you want?
We built a rear bumper that was maximum overkill.

mud flaps
2, 5-gallon gas cans
highlift
spare tire
antenna bracket
splash guards
Room for tire chain boxes.

Check out the pix of my truck.  I made my own custom bumpers.  Cost me a grand total of about $50 each plus some welding.
