Default Smittybuilt Oversized Tire Carrier for Spare Anyone?

Has anyone else tried the Smittybuilt carrier with a 35" tire? I am curious about this set up because of the low cost ($130), but then again I do a lot of wheeling. I already have a bumper but dont want to shell out the money for Teraflex or OR-Fab. The alternative might be to sell my existing bumper and replace with a swing carrier, but I would love it if this product works as good as it claims and was reviewed on 4wd.com

I have that tire carrier and it worked really well and secured the tire down so I didn't have any tailgate rattles.

I replaced it with a bumper/ tire carrier so I don't have a use for it any more

I'll sell you mine for $50 but I don't know if I have all the hardware for it and the paint is a little faded on the handle but besides that it's works perfectly.
