It will be in the spare. I've been too busy to get much done on it. Maybe some time next week I'll have it done and post some pics.

I was going to build a carrier on mine, but whenever I ride I'm never far from camp where I can't go get one, I don't DD it, shifts weight around funny, heavy as hell, and I want tons, so obviously I'm not gonna run a 40" tire on the back lol. If I DD'd mine or did an expedition build I would have one for sure.

Installed mine this weekend, have two gr.8 washers under each bearing to help with the added weight of the 31

. Was great putting it on in the end, the passenger side bracket wasn't even half way remaining anymore from rust. I'm going to run over to get a nut that works for the license plate mount, duct tape is just a temp.

Here is mine, I found it in the J/Y for $30.00 including the bumper and all the brackets. I added the loop for the CB antenna mount and the back up light. At the present time it has a 31X10.5 mounted on it.
