🧾 Overview
The DV8 Offroad JL Offroad Tailgate Mounted Tire Carrier is engineered to eliminate the weak points of the factory spare tire mounting system while maintaining full OEM functionality. Designed to integrate seamlessly with DV8 RBJL-01 or RBJL-03 rear bumpers, this carrier transforms a standalone bumper into a frame-supported tire carrier system capable of handling up to a 35" spare tire.
Unlike factory carriers that place excess stress on the tailgate, this system ties into the vehicle frame for added strength, while still operating just like the OEM swing-out. It retains easy rear access, the factory backup camera, and allows you to remount the third brake light for full street legality and safety.
Constructed from heavy-duty steel and finished in a durable powder coat, this tire carrier is built for long-term reliability on lifted JL builds running larger tires.
