Did you mount your 35s and Rockstars on the stock carrier? Wondering if that works ok?

I put my 18" rockstars w/ 35" trail grapplers on my stock tire carrier with a spacer & it was fine until about 2 months later. I hit a big bump on the highway & it caused my stock carrier to crack & rear door to buckle.

So how do we solve this weak carrier issue? Truly, I'm gathering were screwed and have to buy a bumper and carrier- expensive fix for a rather not so complicated problem?!
