XD Crank / NItto Trail Grappler spare on tailgate
 

So, here is a pic of my spare. It's not even touching the bump stops on the tailgate. Is there something I should be buying (larger bump stops that will be long enough to look like black wangs coming out of my tailgate) or are they only there for protection? :thinking:

Yup, you need Daystar extended bumpstops.

Thanks - I'm ordering them up right now.

x2, very easy install.. while your at it order the tailgate reinforcement kit. The weld nuts aren't that strong

Am I going to have to take the spare off to install? I'm guessing yes and hoping no. LOL

I thought I read on here that the reinforcement kits were BS?

sorry to sideline your thread cuz i have no knowledge of what you need. just wondering if you have a side shot of your jk with the cranks? been liking them since they came out but dont like the fact that the back spacing is only 5 inch. yes its better than stock but wish it was 4.5. i didnt want to run spacers but may end up having to since i am really digging the wheels.

thanks
