Besides the cost difference what would you guys suggest? I love the bumper/tire carrier combo but at 200lbs I don't want my springs to sag and have to add another spacer (running 2.5 inch rc spacer lift, stock lift) will it even sag? I like how the TF hinge keeps things light. I'll be carrying a 35 nitto which is fairly heavy!

 

It sounds like you have already answered your own question. You want to keep it light? Go with the Teraflex. It looks great, is light, and will easily handle your tire.

 

I'm running the smittybilt oversized tire carrier rated for 200 lbs and I absolutley love it. I was worried for a while but after the install I was free and clear. It's very secure and fairly light as far as extra weight goes.

 

TF carrier and evo d-rings...cant be much lighter than that

 

D-rings with the stock rear bumper? Sorry I'm just confused what you meant.

 

^^ I think he's referring to this. Teraflex tire carrier and EVO D Rings.

 

Thanks haha I had no clue. Should've just googled it.

 

I have the TF hinge with stock tire carrier holding my Moab wheel and a 37" BFG km2. No evo d-rings yet but I do have the receiver hitch d-ring

 

Agree with the TF hinge and EVO d rings.....but maybe thats just because my setup just arrived yesterday!

 

ive got one for sale!
