This subject is often referred to here and I thought I would put together a little list of known carriers that were factory mopar parts.
This list is of FACTORY parts only, not the aftermarket carriers that were installed by dealers.
If anyone has any more info please feel free to post!
----------------------------------------------------------------
Part#52000207+Various Brackets
We will start from the early carriers that were used from 84-89
I feel this is the strongest of the two stock rear carriers.
Here is a view with no tire.
And here it is retro fitted onto a 97+ Cherokee.
And here is a exploded view from the parts catalog.

Part#55025329+Various Brackets
Next up is the "bumper" mounted carrier (there are may aftermarket carriers that mimic this)
Started showing up on 90' Cherokees
Used mainly on LHD postal jeeps for more cargo, but was a factory carrier and could have been installed on any jeep.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Part #82203257
About 00' (if anyone has a definitive year it would be great) this carrier showed up.
It is a roof mounted carrier and uses the stock rails.
(A better pic would be helpful also)
