I'm trying to decide which style of carrier to go with.
But I am using the one with the lip that mount to a small support on the carrier. No issues at all.
One thing I did not like and have been thinking about is how to change the spare holder.
The original requires us to remove that little Jeep center cap because it mounts through the rim's central hole. I am thinking how I can use the three-bolt system like in the OEM version so I do not have to remove it. Will likely have to fabricate something.

I have the carrier, and I have armor. I took the rubber tire bumpers off, and have no problems with my cans rattling. Thankfully the people at OR-FAB cut the holes in my armor specifically for their carrier, so I didn't have to do anything special (Above the normal massive amount of labor) to put them on.
