Default AVE Tire Carrier with Stock Bumper

I was wondering how much this weighs. I'm planning getting the Old Man Emu 2" lift and was wondering if I'd need the hd springs for the back or if the light duty would be enough. I'm keeping the stock front bumper and going to roll with 315/70r17 duratracs.

Thanks

Go with the HD if you are planning to add weight, esp if it is a 4dr. I have the AEV rear bumper and Tire carrier and i like it. Not sure of the weight

I do have a 4 door but I was talking about just the tire carrier, without the bumper. I know if I was going to get both I'd need to get the HD springs.

The carrier alone is not that much weight but you've also got to consider the additional weight of the 35" spare ...
