Rear bumper with tire carrier
Purchased a used e auto grills rear bumper. No complaints with the bumper it bolted up really well!!
The problem is with the tire carrier it makes so much noise while driving it is hard to turn the radio up loud enough to drown it out. I'm fairly deaf enough that it doesn't bother me as much but it is driving the better half bonkers!!
Is there any way to fix it?
If no way to fix what is a good way to go?

If it is a latched tire carrier, I've seen people use foam rubber or door insulation near the latch to keep it tight. Then buy the daystar extended tire supports and cut them to fit to keep the tire from wobbling down road.
