Rugged Ridge Spartacus HD Tire Carrier Hinge Casting 97-06 TJ

The Spartacus HD Tire Carrier Hinge Casting provides the ultimate in strength and stability for mounting your oversized wheel and tire.

This, in combination with forged steel hinge brackets and hardened steel pins, results in far superior load capacity than the factory tailgate hinges, thereby effectively reducing wear and increasing longevity. Compatible with OE and most aftermarket rear bumpers. No drilling required. Recommended pairing with Spartacus HD Tire Carrier Wheel Mount (P/N 11546.52) for up to and including 37 in. wheel/tire carrying capacity. Patent Pending.
