Rugged Ridge tire carrier in and on!

FatBuoy · 03-01-2009, 12:35 PM

Got my tire carrier, after a short 10 month wait, and installed it today on the RR bumper. I have absolutely nothing to compare it to, but it seems solid and functional. I have a 35" tire on there and now there's plenty of room to carry a 37

Thanks richnev for posting pics. I just logged back in since I started the thread. Sure would hate for people to not believe me! Shoot, I may not even HAVE a Jeep!

My only wish is that it had places for a highlift and gas cans, but the price was very right. I think I paid $630 for the bumper and carrier....LAST MARCH

lol I have the same two wishes, I raised up my 3rd brake light so one of the holes was exposed and used that to bolt my high lift onto the tire carrier I also used a u bolt alittle higher up to help secure the lift, one thing I had to do was take the foot off the high lift and put it inside the jeep due to the tire carrier being too close

looks good one of the lowest price carriers around.
