96 OEM Tire Carrier

Just picked up a spare tire carrier & bumper off a '96 Cherokee, but it's going on my '99-- Has anybody done a write up on any modifications that need to be done in order to make it work?

Honestly i wouldn't bother with it,Its going to take a lot of work to fit your jeep and they are kinda weak anything over a oem size tire might break it in time.

Andrew is right the metal is very thin on the body to hold up to any real weight even with a stock tire/wheel they had some problems.
