Our MTO Series Wrangler JL Spare Tire Swing Gate was designed to support larger & heavier aftermarket wheels & tires. This add-on tire carrier is compatible with our MTO Series Steel Wrangler Rear Bumper. The swing gate opens with the tailgate, and transfers the extra tire/wheel weight off of the aluminum tailgate and redirects it to the bumper. A dual taper bearing and dual heim pivot provide smooth opening & closing of the carrier.

The MTO Series Jeep spare tire carrier features an adjustable camera mount that enables you to relocate and align the factory rear camera. The third brake light is also accommodated in the design of the carrier, and retains full functionality. Additionally, the carrier features a mounting point for use with a Hi-Lift style jack or similar accessories. Installation is a bolt-on process, with no drilling required.

* Fitment Note: The carrier can fit up to a 20-inch wheel and a 38”x13.5” tire. We recommend use with wheels of 4+ inch backspacing, as this is not compatible with -44 offset wheels. This is not compatible with wheels wider than 9.5-inches. Will work with factory wheels with 2" or larger wheel spacer. 

Please Note: This will not work with vehicles that have the 'XTREME 35” Tire Package'. (also sometimes called “Extreme Recon” package)

Happy with purchase

I had a DV8 MTO rear bumper installed this summer by a shop and decided I wanted the tire carrier before I get my 35’s. Since this carrier says the skill level to install is beginner, I figured I would do it myself. First off I will say the packing of the item was second to none. All the parts were wrapped in a heavy foam rubber and then foam injected into the package to keep the parts from moving around. A bit of a pain to unpack but happy to do so when all the parts arrive in excellent condition. The welds and coating all appear to be of good quality. Downloaded the instructions from the website. At first glance, the instructions look very good with step by step instructions and color photos. But while installing I realized the instructions leave MUCH to be desired. First off, the instructions say time required is about one hour. It took me much longer than that, but I’m not exactly a master mechanic.
Installing the heim joints with the isolators was a huge PITA as it is more than a tight fit, but I got it done. The instructions make no mention of putting a nut on the bottom of the pivot stud, but the “extra” M30 nut made me realize that was what it was for. The photos in steps 13 & 14 appear to show the lower bearing installed without the race. Step 15 maybe mentions installing the race, but this is AFTER seating the carrier post – too late. I knew just enough to know this didn’t seem right.
Also, no mention was made as to re-installing the door vents or installing the back plate. It would have been much easier to install the back plate BEFORE routing the brake light and camera wiring. It made for a tight fit to put it on. It is a major component of this kit and no mention of installing it.
Poor instructions aside, I’m very pleased with the carrier. It seems to work very well and I hope that the quality holds up.
