Evo requires their corners, but since it mounts to the 1/4" plate corners its stronger at the mounting points. Genright mounts to the body. It's in a strong spot but I've personally seen someone back into a tree and buckle the body at the driver side bracket.
If you go with genright I'd try to mount it to a corner of some form as well.

(Tip) it helps to replace the 1/2" hinge side bolts with 9/16" bolts. Takes care if some if the droop when opening swinging the carrier open.
Here's mine

I open mine alot and I dont have an issue. I can pull it and push it with just 2 fingers with that heavy 37. The only thing I did different on mine from others is I installed little cables to my pins so when I pull them out they hang there just to make sure I dont miss place them

So I have the gen right carrier with the Evo corners and I love them both. I went with the al. Carrier simply cause of the price I like the Evo one but I like the gem right one as. Well

Heres one on our two door stretch kit. Sorry don't have any more on my phone..
We install/sell both carriers here. Genrite makes a nice carrier for sure.
I find the Evo carrier easy to get into,
Even after 1,500 road miles and over 400 offroad miles on the JKX. Nothing changed still opens and closes the same.
