Awesome!!
I finally installed my Teraflex tire carrier that had been sitting in the garage for weeks. All I can say is no wonder the factory hinges were making all this noise, they are chinsey pieces of cr&ps. The 33" BFG's are heavy and caused a lot of knocking and creeking noises in the tailgate, after installing the Teraflex all I can say is WOW... this thing is so stout; now my jeep is noise free!!
Now I need to get mey Teraflex leveing kit and JCR bumpers and bushwacker flat fenders all installed... This is the year my jeep makes a huge transformation!!

Installed Teraflex HD Tire Carrier today and it is stout!! Love it! I have the high lift jack mount on order. Is anyone carrying the 48" high lift on the carrier mount? I have my jack, it just looks like it is going to be too tall. I currently have the Trektop NX installed.

I picked up a 48" but then I swapped it for a 42" because the 48 was 6-7" over the hardtop and soft top.
The 48 will work but you might have some clearance issues.

I was unhappy with the CB mount an inch from the Hi-Lift so I installed my CB antenna on the passenger a-pillar using a light mount. (I have a stubby FM antenna). It works great for me and I have an SWR of 1.1 from 1-40.

I used the mount from cooltech llc and it works ok. With the 35s I had to use the high mounting position and the antenna does contact the tire, but does not interfere with opening the glass when the tailgate is swung wide open.

For the people using the adjustable tire carrier does yours have any wiggle to it after putting the spare on? When i shut mine i get a little hum and shake from the spare. Everything is tight and installed correctly, I have it set for about 1/4 inch gap from the tire and hinge.
