No. I refuse to pay that much for it. I was going to build my own to bolt in there but I am going to keep my spare inside where its out of the elements.

I sold the carrier a few years ago with intentions of building a new swingaway to carry fuel/water Jerry's and spare. Never got around to it..

Finally, third time is a charm!

Finally got the D44 4.56 gears installed and the Aussie Locker. Thanks to Wade and his dad for being patient and helping out.

Still need to paint axle, re-install the axle shafts and disc brakes. Run some brake lines. Then put on the Solid Cover I have for it and bolt it into the jeep.
