Product Overview

Description

EVO MFG Heavy Duty Hinged Spare Tire Carrier for the Jeep Wrangler JL 2018+. Offered in 2 configurations: choose Powder Coat above.

The JL factory tire carrier and tailgate was never intended to handle the loads associated with larger, heavier wheel and tire combinations. The EVO MFG JL HD Hinged Tire Carrier is a body mounted tire carrier designed to allow you to carry up to a 40" tire while retaining your vehicle's one handed easy access to the rear cargo area. Its design is tough enough to handle the stresses associated with larger tires and simple enough to keep all the functionality your factory tailgate already has in a simple easy to install and operate package. The EVO MFG JL HD Hinged Tire Carrier is engineered for strength and durability.

It's made from 3/16" and 3/8" steel that's been laser cut, CNC press brake formed, and fully fixture welded. In the factory configuration, the wheel and tire load is transferred through the tailgate to the door hinges. Because this is the weak link, the tire carrier is designed to bypass the tailgate and transfer the heavier wheel and tire load directly to the hinges. The hinge brackets are made from the same 3/16 and 3/8" steel and are gusseted for strength with integrated bump stops that stop the weight of tailgate and tire when it's fully opened.
