Solid and easy installation

The entire installation took just over an hour. All you need is a few sockets and a 10mm and 19mm wrench. I wanted to replace the hinges before my gate started sagging from my 35 in the back. It is very beautiful to look at, I could tell the difference immediately. The eyelet is adjustable so that you can press the spare tire as firmly as possible onto the jeep without it rattling. One neat thing I didn't know is that the hinges are strong enough to hold the gate open! I'm used to catching theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Expensive

Check the hinges before installation.

This review is based solely on what I received and is not representative of any purported product or seller. I was trying to install this on my jeep. Old hinge and bracket removed. When I started installing the new hinge, the hinge itself wouldn't budge. I've tried everything. I called the manufacturer on the number provided in the instructions and was told they sent him faulty blocks with the wrong bushings. They directed me to a website to submit a warranty card. I still haven't received anโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • Something else

Please read my setup review.

I bought this without a review so I feel compelled to give this product one. In the state of delivery, the components appear solid and of high quality. The instructions are fairly easy to follow with helpful illustrations. The fit on MY Jeep was a little less than perfect. Following the instructions in the email, I had a misalignment issue that required me to use a round file to file the holes a bit to help with alignment. adjust a few inches. Well, if you have a wheel with more rear clearanceโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Poorly thought out

Heavy Duty Exterior Accessories

This luggage rack is very strong, but it wasn't easy to assemble. The instructions are mostly self-explanatory, but when assembling the Pivot Bracket and Bar Holder, the instructions relate to each other, which can be confusing. All the necessary equipment was there. This thing is HEAVY and no amount of shims will hold your tailgate in place the first time. This media took about 2 hours to install as we had to set it up multiple times. Drill and adjust hinges. Install tire holder, adjustโ€ฆ

Pros
  • An absolute legend

I'm glad I missed TerraFlex!

I couldn't imagine spending an extra $200 on a Terraflex mount and swivel so I got that and essentially saved a free spare tire. I chose an Xprite brake light that is mounted in the spare wheel. I'm on a 2016 JKU with 35" tires and 16" Cepek DC2 wheels. Each wheel tire weighs approximately 115 pounds. If you complain about knocking, you have to be careful when installing the hinge. I used three phase puffs. Initially when you wedge and fasten first. Second, as you rotate it to the open position

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • expandable
