Smittybilt’s Pivot Tire Carrier
Smittybilt
Big tires are easy to fit under the 07+ Jeep Wrangler JK, but carrying a matching spare is not so simple… until now. Smittybilt is proud to introduce their new Pivot Heavy Duty Oversized Tire Carrier and Tailgate Reinforcement System that is engineered to hold up to a 37-inch spare tire. The monoblock aluminum construction is combined with forged chromoly mounting brackets for the ultimate in strength to eliminate tailgate sagging and rattles, even while holding up to 135 pounds. The new Pivot Heavy Duty Oversized Tire Carrier triangulates the tailgate mounting and body tub hinge points using existing mounting holes to distribute loads across a wide area while maintaining the easy single action opening and closing of the tailgate.
The Smittybilt mount is adjustable to accommodate different size tires and is compatible with both the stock rear bumper and most aftermarket options. Protective EPDM gaskets are included to protect the finish on your Jeep, and a relocation bracket for the third brake light comes standard. The Pivot Heavy Duty Oversized Tire Carrier has provisions to mount a Trail Jack with optional brackets that are sold separately and can be added at the time of purchase or in the future as your needs change.
