stopping a tire swing

i know some here have custom bumpers. my question is, for those of you who have them, with tire swings..how do you stop the tire swing from swinging too far open. just trying to get some ideas on what is being used.


thanks

Possibly, though that is the best angle of it. It's basically just a spring-loaded pin that when it hits that ramp, it slides up, then pops in the hole.
