Total disappointment with this spare tire carrier bracket

My analysis of this Automotive product showed that the TIXO Relocation Bracket was poorly constructed and did not fit my 2018 Wrangler as advertised. The one positive was that the customer service was helpful in processing my return. However, the bracket was not worth the time and effort it took to install it, and it ended up being a frustrating waste of money.

Pros
  • Easy installation and improves off-road performance
Cons
  • Pricier than some other relocation bracket options on the market

Cannot be used with wedge eyelets, chipping powder coating, curved

There are many issues with this mount: 1. The powder coating was chipped off the edges in a few places so I had to repaint before installing to prevent rusting.2. The thread pattern is NOT the same as the 2018 JL, so you cannot use your original grommets. You must use the eyelets provided. The main problem here is that you can't use the key eye if you have one.3. Wrong screw angle. It was a bear trying to put a wheel on me. The bolts weren't straight so it was almost impossible to install the…

Pros
  • FEATURE - Spare wheel extender moves the wheel attachment point away from the vehicle and provides additional clearance for tires up to 37". This Jeep spare tire mount also increases the clearance between the bumper and the bottom of the tire.
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

Don't buy this. Seriously, just move on to another one!

List of problems with this mount.1. Wheel studs are not straight. I had to put nuts on them and knock them out with a hammer to align them. Now remember this is for big tires so I had to remove and install the wheel a couple of times. Quality control is terrible.2. The thread pattern is different. So your stock or after-market sample lug nut will not work. Thus, the wedge nut version of the standard nut is no longer used.3. Wrong nut size. This requires a 21mm jack. Standard wheel nut size is…

Pros
  • STRUCTURE - Heavy duty welded steel construction. Inserts for increased strength and durability. Black textured powder coating for durability and protection against corrosion.
Cons
  • Almost everything is ok
