The cans don't rest on the bumper, they shouldn't have to on our set up due to the carriers design. We'll be testing it in Moab over EJS to find out what Adjustments we may have to make.....

The filler spouts can ride on what ever side you want them to....

2 Questions. Do you have to remove the spare tire in order to remove the cans? And what do you expect the price range to be in? Thanks for the pictures!!!

no, no tire removal. you do have to open the carrier, to unlatch it, but the cans just pull out from the sides....

The cans will have a retail price for about $89.00 each.

We're trying to get the whole system priced for around $300 with cans...

I just saw the release on the Project-JK site of your rear bumper + tire carrier. What is the price on those as it is pictured on the site? Looks great, im interested.

Do you need an aftermarket bumper/tire carrier to have this setup or will brackets be made to use the OEM carrier/bumper?

The best thing about those wheels is

There, I will sleep better after admitting this to myself and everyone.

I'm starting to get that "12 step" feeling about these issues,... "Hi. My name is Mark, and I have become a Jeep-a-holic. It's been 45 minutes since I surfed this website"
