The tire carrier is awesome!!! Only hard part is the hole in the body right by the driver taillight and the support bracket that is on the inside of the passenger side hardest part of install very difficult to get to!! Besides that it's amazing... No rattles!

The arm is by far the most expensive part of the kit, as a replacement item it will cost folks $400+ to purchase. The RotoPax carrier will be released in early June 2011. The price of these, including two 3 gallon RotoPax cans and two Pack Adapters will run $719. The RotoPax items add $210ish to the price of the carrier.

Not hearing anything from Benchmark Designs on their Rear sport midwidth bumper with tire carrier option is making lean more towards this tire carrier for sure!!

I just received the original 85207 tire w/ can carrier. Will I need the new rotopax carrier arm to use rotopax cans, or will the adapter (87031) be enough? I just want to be able to use rotopax instead of jerry cans. Thanks.

SWEET! UPS tracking shows I'll have my new ORF Rotopax Carrier tomorrow PM so I should be able to get it installed prior to the 4wheel parts event on Saturday. Thanks again ORF for producing top notch products all here in the USA!

I'll post up some pics of the installed carrier in the show and tell!
