I just installed the hinge and mount 3 weeks ago. Like the previous post, BEST purchase I've made for the Jeep so far. This thing is SOLID. No movement, rattles, or squeaks. The tailgate closure action is heavy and smooth, and feels the way it should have felt from the factory. It really is a night and day difference. I was skeptical before the install, but I am truly a believer now. And I can choose the bumper that I want and not have to worry about the carrier portion. Excellent product!

The hinge and carrier work together. If anything get the hinge first. The adjustable carrier just gets the tire closer to the tailgate, but there's still too much weight on the spot welds. You may be fine as others have, or you not.
