Hey.
For some reason, when I purchased my JKUR, and added a rear Metalcloak bumper, I decided to forego the version with the spare tire mount. I am now kicking myself in the butt, as I need some reinforcement for the 37 I have back there. I have a couple options that I am considering, and would like some advice.
First Option: Metalcloak Sport Carrier/Hinge Reinforcement - This seems the most practical, as it is relatively cheap, and will help my tailgate tremendously. Only downside is I cannot go with a larger tire (40") down the line.
Second Option: Body Mount Carrier - I like the looks of these, but I worry about damaging the body of the jeep. These allow me to go up in tire size, but can be a little pricey depending on brand.
Third Option: Contact Metalcloak and order the parts I need to add the carrier to the frame built bumper. Not sure how much this would cost, but it seems like this would support a larger tire.
Thoughts?
