I have the OrFab & don't have any experience with the others & I'm very please with mine. It carriers a 34" BFG MT tire & 48" Hi Lift jack with no problems.

I've been looking at the same thing myself. Right now, after researching for a few months, I'm leaning towards the OR-Fab with Rotopax. The main reason is that they are the only one which reinforces the stock hinge and sheet metal, which makes it seem stronger to me.

Genright looks great and is solid. It will hold a 40" tire if needed.

Just hooked up my "Mickey Mouse" OR Fab Today. All i can say is its not easy. 2 man job on one part but the payoff is outstanding. I feel i could jump on this unit with no problems. I really like the way the Rotopax cans mount and the smoothness of the hinge assembly. Install will take about 5 hours but in my opinion its well worth it. My buddy has a Teraflex unit and he is really happy with it also. No experience with Genright although most of us they make a quality product. Running a 37' but I can definitely go bigger with this carrier.
