Default JCR Dagger + Teraflex Hinged Carrier?

Hey Folks,

I'm running a Teraflex Hinged Tire carrier with a 35x12.5x17 tire on it. I want to order a JCR Dagger rear bumper but I'm not sure if the bumper will interfere with the tire. Anyone running this set up?

Thanks!

Do you have the adjustable tire carrier or just the hinge? If you have the carrier, you should be able to adjust the tire height to fit the bumper?

If you have just the hinge, you may need to get a spacer to push the tire further up/away from the bumper. Either way, it can be done. I personally wouldn't let the hinge influence your bumper decision unless I'm missing something (which is very possible)

Tankerbell, thanks for the reply.

I have the adjustable mount for the carrier. After talking to JCR we aren't sure that it will fit. The measurements are too close to tell. I'm afraid to push the tire too far back away from the gate because it will allow it to become unstable. So, I thought I'd ask the masses if they are personally using this config.

BTW, I'm talking to a Teraflex rep now.
