Love this tire carrier!
I ordered this tire carrier for my new JL in April of 2018. It installed very easily and it's quiet! I am running 37's and can move the tire up or down 3" for more visibility out the rear window, by moving the mounting bracket. I have bumped it out on the trail with no damage to the vehicle or tire carrier. Top quality!
