Very annoying design; do not recommend 8 months ago

Jeff
The major flaw with this tire carrier, which is not explained or mentioned, is that you have to fish the brake light wiring through the silver housing each and every time you remove the tire from the carrier. If you install a spare tire and leave it, not a big deal. However, for those who rotate in the spare every 5,000 miles, this is a major annoyance. The issue is only compounded when you add a 37-39" tire almost completely blocking the area for access.

This thing is solid! Compared to the old model(JK) this is way better. Couple things I would’ve love have is the ability to adjust the camera position, I have wheels with 4.5in backspace and even though the camera extend more than factory, the wheel is still showing, not that bad though. Also a gasket between the bracket and the tailgate to prevent paint damage. Besides all that I love this thing and would buy again. Teraflex come on send a sticker at least.
