Default @!%#ing Or-Fab Tire Carrier

I had the Or-Fab tire carrier with Jerry Can mounts on my '07 JKU that I installed myself. Now I just finished installing a new one on my '13 JKUR Boy, did I forget what a major PITA it was to install. Trying to reach through into the tail light compartments to fasten the hardware is excruciating! But I'm loving the product. Very heavy duty with no rattles/ movement. Had minor rust issues in the hinge area of the last one, but hoping for better rust protection on this new one.

Your right about being a PITA to install, but once done it's worth the trouble. I've had mine installed for about a year and the only place where the paint is coming off is around the closure. It is a very sturdy unit.
