Best rear bumber/tire carrier for 2011?
Hey everyone....this is my first post. I just bought a 2011 Sahara Unlimited and right away put a BDS 4.5" lift with Terra Grappler 35X12.50's and a Volant Powercore CAI.
I am in need of a new rear bumper/tire carrier to hold the spare....any reccomendations? I have looked at the Warn and Smitty.
Any help would be appreciated!!

X2 I don't have input on any bumpers, but I do have and very much like the OR-Fab tire carrier. And then you can get any bumper you like. I thought it would be a pain to have it swing separate from the tailgate, but it hasn't been an issue for me. My gf doesn't like, but as she puts it - It's easy, and it takes no time to do. - That tells me it isn't so bad.

If price wasn't an issue, I would choose the new LoD Gen 3 with all the options. My second choice would be the OR-Fab carrier with a PSC bumper. I haven't heard may good things about Smitty...for the money I would personally look elsewhere. Just my $.02. there are so many good options out there. I'm sure you'll love whatever you choose. Good luck and post pics!
