Looking for Tire Carrier Recommendations

[SilverLJR]

Looking for some tire carrier recommendations
Im moving up to 37s soon and The bestop oversized tire carrier I feel is right at its limit with a 35.

I can't go bumper mounted, I really want to keep my Mopar rear bumper
I bottom out once in a while on the tire while I'm wheeling so maybe one that sits a bit higher?
Overall I just want to make sure It can handle the weight of a 37 with a beadlock wheel.


If anyone could point me in a direction that would be great.
Thanks!

MORryde / Exogate is the gold standard.

I wouldn't use either of those for a 37". I had the Exogate and it wasn't heavy duty enough.

I ended up going with the Rusty's carrier, no complaints.

There are a few that have the CavFab carrier which also seems like a good option. I didn't go with that one partially because it mentions using the factory roll bar (which I don't have).

What about the GenRight carrier?

That would work, but it's also $1700. I had mentioned it to Blaine, I don't remember why he doesn't like it. It does look like it would be more trouble to open the back vs. the Rusty's or Cavfab that keep the functionality the same (similar to the the Exogate).

My recommendation from personal experience would be Rough Country Bumpers

I like how that rustys one mounts up. Looks pretty stout.
Nothing you could nitpick about it at all?

Keep your eyes open for a used ORFab. 37s are ZERO issues.

I've had it on for over a year. Works well, opening and closing is smooth like it's part of the tailgate.

isn't there a photo around here of Jerry or somebody carrying the top half of a RC bumper in the back of their Jeep after it failed?

My OR Fab. They were a very different company then.

You can sell that Bestop carrier in a weekend. Offset the cost of whatever..

Isn't this one of the old ORFab carriers?

No. ORF only tied into the body.
