Default LoD rear tire carrier with stock wheels
So I have a 2 yr old LoD rear bumper with tire carrier. Today I (finally) upgraded to 35" Toyo M/T's mounted on the stock rubi wheels. When we went to mount the spare the studs came up way short. This is with the adjustment being in the furthest hole. Has anyone else run into this problem and if so, what's the fix?

Seriously? I'm the only one with this issue? Maybe I have a bad mount or something.

Do your 35s on stock rubis fit without spacers? I'm guessing that is the issue, not enough bs.

Of couse I have spacers!

Called Chris at LoD. Seems my carrier is the old style they don't make anymore. He's sending me a new one that should work.
