Posted: Tue Dec 10, 2013 9:27 amKeep in mind that the main issue with bumper/tire carriers is the RATTLE. Many of them have been reported to rattle like crazy and will drive you crazy. Craig says that his ARB is rattle-free. On my JK I have the Tera Flex hinge and carrier that is rattle free but won't apply to your set-up. As already mentioned, max tire size should be a consideration too.

No swing out to mess with. Easily handles a 35 spare plus more. No need to buy a new rear bumper. Easy open/close of the rear gate without screwing with secondary latches. Win, win!
