Its finally here AND ITS FINALLY ON (PICS)
After two wks of awaiting due to out of stock issues my Or-Fab tire carrier showed up but No Hardware so the wait continues I will post pics with it on as soon as I get the hardware
Finally after 4wks of issues I got my hardware let me just say yes it is a PINTA to install I personally thought it was easier to install the lift. Do follow the instructions carefully and take your time make sure you have the proper tools. Adding the brackect to the hinges was the easiest part the hardest part for me was was getting the hole lined up for the landing block my angle drill wouldnt fit inside so I had to do some measurments on the outside thank god I got it right on the first shot .
The carrier is great once said and done no rattles what so ever my tire and rim combo weighs 111lbs and it holds it nice and steady out of a scale 1-10 I rate the carrier 8 the install 3 but that depends on whos doing it
Chopped factory third light with a brackect off my daughters old trampoline lol

Hey dude, once you get that on, you're going to have to fill the rest of us in on how complicated it was. There's another write-up in here on this, but we could always use another point of view. I know it's awesome and I want one too. Congrats.

I def will let you guys know how hard it is to be honest with you guys it looks pretty simple to me, and the jerrys are blitz and are a PITA to find everybody wanted $60 plus for them 4 wheel parts wanted $70 I found them at northern tool for 39 bucks with spouts
