Post Tips on rear tire racks

I would like to get a rear tire rack, since safari racks are nice for roof tops, but my friends told me jeeping with a soft top would be ideal. Can anyone recommend a good rear tire rack for mounting say a high jack, some extra fuel and maybe a tool box??? Thanks

Check out OR-FAB they make a nice rack that holds 2 gas cans a high lift and your oversized spare. I won one on the JK-Mas 7 th day give away. I have not put it on yet. It looks like a great product and can't wait to get it put on.
RUBIMON has one you could check his photos for it. Good Luck.

yeah, if you're looking to get your spare off your tailgate, carry a couple cans of gas and carry a hi-lift jack, the OR-Fab setup is ideal.
