Tell me how you like it. It's on my short list along with the remedy and enduro.

What type of carrier do y'all use? I'd like a spare tire mount but most of the ones I've found fit a 32" tire. I don't know if they make it around my 37s.

 

Thule or Yakima make 2" receiver racks. I personally use a roof top mount. Kargo Master roll cage that works over my hard top or soft top. I have Thule cross rails and trays.

 

Thanks. I sold my rack when I went to 37" tires. I've looked at the hitch carriers but I'd something I could leave on and still open the rear gate.

 

I have a Thule T2 which I really like. I don't like having to use the extension though

 

Can anyone recommend a good over the spare tire bike rack? At least for 2 bikes? Preferably 4.

 

A lot of the manufacturers don't make them anymore. Thule still makes one, but I would not use it. I had a Yakima years ago that had a plate mount behind the spare with a post that extended through the rim. Was nice till I got rear ended. When the Audi hit me from behind, it was with enough force that it ripped the rack off the mount and went through the driver's windshield! Almost killed hit! That's when I bit the bullet and started putting my bikes on a roof mount.

Yakima Sparetime works with oversize tires, Thule Spare Me can only go as big as a 32" tire without modding (drilling new holes). You place more stress on the jeep tailgate and hinge with spare tire carriers though. If you already have a aftermarket tire carrier all should be good since the weight is off the jeep tub and is on the frame. Depending on your bike frame, this type of bike mount may not work.

 

Thanka for the response. Iv got an smittybuilt xrc rear tire carrier. Iv got 2 mountain bikes (specialized) to carry around. Your recommnedation good for that setup?
