Default Teraflex came through... Hinged Carrier and stock wheel issue

I spoke to a TF rep a few days ago with an issue I had with their hinged carrier/adjustable mount and a stock wheel. The adjustable mound didn't have enough travel to accommodate a stock wheels backspacing. If you added just a wheel spacer then their 3rd light mount would not work. Well today Fedex dropped off a package from TF with a wheel spacer and 3 longer wheel studs. All I had to do was knock the shorter studs out of the adjustable mount and replace them with the new longer wheel studs. I used some keepers off of my axle when I put on my Spidertrax wheel spacers. These just keep the new TF spacer tight against the adjustable mount. I haven't mounted my Toyo's yet but it looks like there will be enough adjustment to fit a 35x12.5 on a stock wheel with their setup. Here are a few pics of how it turned out. Thanks Teraflex!
