35" spare - need a wheel spacer or mount ext or both??
I've had my Toyo 35s for a few weeks and not having the full spare is really bothering me. I just have the stock tire mount with my 32" BFG on it now. I see these spare tire mount relocation brackets online that say that allow the stock carrier to hold up to a 37" tire. They're about $35. Is this all I need? Do I need to run a wheel spacer too? Will the new bolts included in the relocation kit keep it from warping my tailgate? Those Toyos are HEAVY!
Eventually I'll get new bumpers with a proper carrier...
Help please!

that is a lot of weight to put on the tailgate. i have read about plenty of them getting tweaked. have you considered an aftermarket rear bumper and tire carrier? there are lots of options....
