Rugged Ridge Tire Carrier
I'm hoping that someone who is running this with the xhd rear bumper has pictures or a remedy for the third brake light.
Don't wanna buy this tire carrier without a full plan.

It is on their website right now. I have the bumper on order and was also told it should get here towards the end of October. I haven't ordered the tire carrier yet, but I expect it to be at least a few months after the bumper. I'm expecting that I will probably have to come up with some other rear brake light setup, but haven't gotten that far yet.

OMIX-ADA makes the Rugged Ridge bumpers. Due to a design flaw the rear XHD bumpers have never been released. Quadratec, 4wd.com and others have presold this bumper since the beginning of the year. According to Nick at OMIX-ADA they are due a initial shipment of 300 units by mid October. Nick informed that over 300 units are back ordered from various retailers. As of last week OMIX-ADA informed no tire carriers will accompany the shipment due in mid October.

I can't seem to find it through the search.
