I am about to purchase an Expedition One Rear Bumper/Tire Carrier for my '04 TJ

Unfortunately, I have not seen one in person.


I love the looks of it!
I also love the way the tire carrier opens with the tailgate!

How is the corner protection? Any fender protection?

Can I run the 3rd brake light with this tire carrier?
Can I tow with it? (Not a boat, but maybe a little trailer.)


I had been looking at a rear bumper tire carrier with built-in lights (or place to add) but this one does not appear to have that - oh well - no biggy.


Can anyone give me feedback on this tire carrier?



Thanks!
Nikki
