If you have a Baja 2.0 and would love to mount your spare tires in the back vertically, then this is a must have upgrade! This vertical tire carrier is a direct - drop in replacement of the current rear carrier. All hardware is included, installation takes 20 minutes tops! No other 3DPD parts are required to run this carrier - carbon braces are optional, but they help significantly! Install them on the inside, or outside with this upgrade.
There are many benefits of running your tires in this orientation. Lower center of gravity than stock - more weight down low compared to the empty plastic "fuel cell" that is provided. Although this carrier is made out of rubber, it actually increases rigdity with its design - which means less tire wobbling in the rear - which means less rear end bucking!! Tire strap design includes 3 mounting holes for various sized tires! Even those massive paddles should slide right in!
This upgrade requires 0 modifications of the stock plastic - remove stock carrier, drop in the new one. ALL HARDWARE TO MOUNT IS INCLUDED!! NO SOURCING YOUR OWN BOLTS!!
Reviews
Really great product design and feels solid without a lot of weight. Truck still feels pretty balanced with a lower center of gravity. Tires fit really snug no concerns with them coming out during a hard rollover. Price is also great and shipped fast. Can’t say enough good things.
Fit, form and function awesome. Keep in mind it’ll add some weight in the rear had to adjust the preload other than that this carrier is awesome, noticed I turned the screws around for the straps I didn’t want it digging into the tires plus I could add a nut if needed.
Update, second picture started to paint the straps
Love the look of this piece. It is very well thought out and lowers the CG enough to help improve traction roll versus the stock carrier.
