I'm hoping that someone who is running this with the xhd rear bumper has pictures or a remedy for the third brake light.
Don't wanna buy this tire carrier without a full plan.

 

i dont think that tire carrier ever came out , i know i was gonna by one awhile ago but i dont think they ever started shipping them. or maybe they did now ?

 

im still waiting for my rear bumper, they said it should ship at the end of october but we will see. havent heard anything about the tire carrier yet

 

It isnt listed in the new quadratech. I hope they make them I want one

 

It is on their website right now. I have the bumper on order and was also told it should get here towards the end of October. I haven't ordered the tire carrier yet, but I expect it to be at least a few months after the bumper. I'm expecting that I will probably have to come up with some other rear brake light setup, but haven't gotten that far yet.

 

sounds like they are being made by the same company making the smittybilt xrc rears too. i am still waiting on mine. was gonna cancel and order the RR, but seems it isnt out yet either

 

OMIX-ADA makes the Rugged Ridge bumpers. Due to a design flaw the rear XHD bumpers have never been released. Quadratec, 4wd.com and others have presold this bumper since the beginning of the year. According to Nick at OMIX-ADA they are due a initial shipment of 300 units by mid October. Nick informed that over 300 units are back ordered from various retailers. As of last week OMIX-ADA informed no tire carriers will accompany the shipment due in mid October.

 

Do you have a link for that tire carrier?
I can't seem to find it through the search.

You could always go the OR Fab route. I like mine a lot!
