Arb rear bumper spare tire carrier options?
Hello!
So, I have an 18 2dr Rubicon JK with a spare tire delete and an Arb rear bumper, I really don’t feel comfortable running without a spare tire but also don’t want to put a 35” spare on the tailgate. so I’d like to use the spot Arb provided on the bumper that has a plate covering the hole for the spare tire carrier, Does anyone know of any other brands that can use the cutout in the Arb bumper? I’m trying to avoid spending another $1000 if I can but I obviously don’t want a piece of crap either
thanks!

Do you not want a 35 on the tailgate due to looks, or due to weight. Personally, I'd get a nice hinge carrier and call it a day if you really want that spare. There are a lot of good ones out there that are plenty sturdy. The MORryde is pretty cost-conscious, and then there is the original Teraflex one that has been copied ad nauseam.
