Any more info about this LOD tire carrier? I was pretty set on theraflex but perhaps I'll wait and see what comes about this November.

This time around I decided I wanted a carrier that opened easily with the gate without having to remove any pins/clips. I'm fairly happy with the Tereflex carrier, but it doesn't seem nearly as solid in the closed position as my Genright was(Worth the trade off for ease of access to the back.)
Works well with the Poison Spyder BFH Rear.

I'm looking at possibly getting this. For those of you running it, are there any issues or things you wish it had that it doesn't? Is it high enough or does the tire sit too low for some of your clearance concerns? With all the add-ons (hilift mount, rotopax, etc) do you feel it's sturdy enough? Thanks for any input you can provide.

Anyone have an aftermarket bumper paired with theirs? Thanks to those that have the EVO D ring set up posted. Good visual for alternative bumper styles.

The hinge is solid. The tire mount piece (if you opt for that as well) could be better IMO. The accessory mount that people run... I hated my rotopax mounted to the hi lift so I took it off. I hated the way the hi lift rattled and made my jeep sound like a heap (even with handle isolator and neoprene boot) to I took the jack off and put it back inside. Now I just run the rotopax on the $75 mount, but at least it's quiet again and I don't have to worry about the jack smashing the glass if the gate were to be closer before the glass. One major downfall still, all of my friends feel the need to slam the tailgate shut even with a heavy ass tire/wheel on it. The whole jeep shakes.
