Default Rock Hard rear bumper and tire carrier install

Hello fellow Jeepers! I recently bought a rock hard rear bumper and tire carrier for my 2010 Jeep Jk. I bought it off craigslist and unfortunately the purchase did not come with instructions. I have been searching for instructions everywhere! Please if you know any any threads or have the instructions let me know. Thank you.

I did my install a few weeks ago and sure i still have the instructions. PM me if you get stuck and i can scan and email them over. I also got the bumper 2nd hand and it was a total pain to install as i have a bent rear cross-member. If it had not been for that i think it would have been pretty straight forward.
Thanks
Dave

I finally put everything together. I just have one question, does the little handle/latch that opens the tire carrier rattle or is it nice and firm. When I drive I can heard the latch bounce up and down.

It should be nice and firm. Are you sure the carrier is fully latched? The mechanism has two positions and the carrier must be closed firmly enough to engage the second lock. Also the rubber bumper should be compressed enough to firmly push against the carrier to eliminate rattles.

Thanks for the tips! I'll check it out to make sure it is locking into the second lock.
