Incorporating and using the factory tailgate, the hinge mounting points spread and separate the load as far apart as possible, resulting in maximum strength and durability. Dedicated tooling provides a cast A356.2 T6 Aluminum main component. This keeps the carrier as light and strong as possible. The fit and finish is designed to follow the flow and contour of the Jeep body, while seamlessly providing additional mounting points for off-road accessories such as recovery jack and fluid containers. The factory Jeep body provides substantial internal gussets and bracing that easily supports the new tire carrier and oversized tire. The HD hinge brackets are forged steel and the HD 5\/8” hinge pins are constructed from cold formed high-carbon hardened steel. The combination of mounting location and HD mounting brackets provides one of the strongest, rattle-free tire carriers on the market today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe TeraFlex HD Tire Carrier removes all stress from the gate by utilizing the HD reinforcement carrier as the load-carrying component; in effect it carries the weight of the tailgate assembly and the spare tire. The simple 100% bolt-on installation can be performed using common hand tools, with no drilling required. The simple design also allows for the use of a rear bumper of your choice - no aftermarket bumper purchase is required, and it works with most aftermarket bumpers. This carrier is a patented design (#D698224) covered by the USPTO.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInnovative and unique patented design (USPTO: # D6982240)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaintains single-handed entry to the rear cargo area\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEasy fore\/aft and height adjustments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEliminates tailgate stress and rattles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks w\/ OEM and most aftermarket bumpers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThreaded mounting holes for mounting accessories (fuel cans, recovery jack, etc.)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrong and lightweight A356.2 T6 cast aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty forged steel brackets and high-carbon hardened steel 5\/8\" hinge pins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFactory form fitting geometry and finish for an OEM appearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSimple installation using common hand tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo drilling required – uses factory mounting locations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDedicated CAD-designed tooling and CAE design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFEA validation, ASTM, and SAE testing procedures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e14,000-cycle severe duty slam testing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1,000-hour extreme salt spray testing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOEM Quality UV resistant powder coat finish w\/ 3,000-hour accelerated weather testing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitment:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK 2 Door\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK Unlimited 4 Door\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) HD Hinged Carrier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) Spare Tire Mounting Kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) Hardware Kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 Year Warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRequires aftermarket wheels w\/ 5” backspacing or less – or Alpha HD Hinged Spare Tire Carrier Wheel Spacer Kit (# 1055005) for stock wheels.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Teraflex","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46226293653661,"sku":"(1) 4838100 | (1) 4838130","price":895.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0645\/2504\/1821\/files\/Screenshot2024-11-29105207.png?v=1732897625","url":"https:\/\/rudysdiesel.com\/products\/teraflex-hd-hinged-carrier-spare-tire-mounting-kit-for-07-18-jeep-wrangler-jk","provider":"Rudy's Performance Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
