I am going to run the teraflex hd carrier on stock hinge with 35 on Pintlers so I can get the tire as close to the gate as possible. I don't plan on any heavy wheeling so I hope this will be better than pure stock carrier. If I have problems, I'll get the hd hinge as well. Just don't wanna drop another $500 just in case. Fingers crossed

Ran my stock carrier 8 months with 35's on it, you can see it pulling the spot welds in,. spare is in the back now. Putting a bumper w/ spare tire rack on when weather breaks.

Another $500? The hinge is like $479 and the carrier is like an extra $179 or so. Should be around $650 or so for both pieces.
