Default Found stock rear tire carrier! What do i do?

I found a stock rear tire carier at a JY right near my house. Its off an early 90s model and ive got an 01. What would i have to mod on my xj in order to put the carrier on?

Whatever holds it on the other Jeep, take that off and put on your Jeep and hold it on with that.

Bumper off the older Jeep and bolts to your quarter panel. BTW it won't hold much more than a 31 and it will have the tire sitting low. If you wheel it will catch on everything with the tire that low.
