Tyger AutoTG-TR8J84078 Oversize Tire Carrier Kit Compatible with 2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK (Not for JL) | Textured Black Fits up to 37inch Spare Tire

I have a basket mounted over the tire, and tire, basket, and contents simply didn't look or feel like they were going to stay on at any given time. This supports the tire, basket, 60" Hi-Lift jack, and tailgate, instead of the tailgate doing the heavy work. One of the main reasons I got this is because the basket I have mounts behind the stock tire carrier, and it fits exactly the same as it did on this. Without the basket mounted, the new LT285/70-17 spare worked just fine. With the basket mounted, it didn't (it barely held a stock tire anyway), and I had to add an extension. Even with the extra leverage, it barely vibrates when I close the tailgate.The only issue I had with installation was getting the washers and nuts onto the back side of the bolts while mounting the tire carrier. Welded nuts would make installation a touch easier, but would add cost, and make adjustment impossible.The instructions were easy to follow, and were sufficiently illustrated. I wish all Jeep accessories had instructions like these. Just make sure you don't miss a step and you'll be fine. If you choose to use the 3rd brake light extension, you might need longer leads. I don't need it, but the stock wire was barely long enough for the brake light without the extension.Your mileage may vary, but I'd buy this again. If I had another Wrangler.

As an independent automobile dealer I often have to buy truck and suv products. I have purchased several items from Tyger in the past. They never fall short. Great quality and value. Durable and easy to install. I will buy again and recommend to my customers in the future.

I gave a 5 star because for the price it seems well made and I won’t ding the seller or product for the few shortfalls, it’s worth the price. A few things that could be better: I watched the video and read the directions, they are not the same. First, mount the spare tire rack to the carrier before putting on the door not after, it’s a pain. Second, don’t cut the tail light bracket to extend without realizing you will have to cut/splice the wiring harness. I have a 36” tire and the brake light is visible without extending the frame and the harness plug barely reached the hole to run inside the door. Third, don’t tighten the hinge brackets down to the rear until after you’ve mounted the door. Leave a little play for the hinges to fit together and place hinge bolts. Shut the door and get it lined up then tighten the right boots down tight. That will hold your alignment. Then open the door and tighten the other bolts. Fourth, if you have the spare tire bumpers you will have to relocate the right one to the new carrier. This kit does not come with a plug for the hole where the tire bumper was and will subject your rear door to the elements.I would buy this product again. My door no longer sags and my problem is solved for less than the price of the others I had looked at.

Just a little noisy going over bumps. Can not tighten to fix noise. Nothing going to fall off. Just squeeking

Overall, I like everything about my purchase. The texture and the look, it gives my 2008 jeep wrangler. Not hard to install took about 2hrs.

EXCELLENT PRODUCT. TAILGATE RATTLE WAS TERRIBLE WITH MY 35" OVERSIZED SPARE. THIS PRODUCT TOTALLY ELIMINATED THE RATTLE.

It looks good and functions correctly for my 37 inch tire. The hinges rattle. Almost like the holes for the bolt are a size too big. It’s very annoying living on a bumpy back road

This looks good on my Jeep and much sturdier than the factory mount. I should have done this awhile ago. A couple of things. I did take the door off the hinges but not completely removed as I didn't want to take all the wiring off so that was not that easy. The other thing is I mounted the bracket to the door without the original mount on first. Then I realized why you should add the factory mount to the brace and then to the door because you can't get to some of the bolts to attach it after. I managed to get most but still have 2 at the bottom that will be a rainy Saturday project. It's still very sturdy. Also when I got it all together I opened the door and the rear door check tailgate stopper popped out. So be careful to check the position of that when you reattach it. I'll fix that later as well. Im not even sure I need it since the new brackets come with one. Overall I love it!!
