The TeraFlex Alpha HD Tire Carrier with Adjustable Tire Mount is designed to accommodate up to a 40” tire and will secure your full-size spare over the most extreme trails and jarring trails and terrain while also providing easy access to the rear cargo area in one smooth action the way the factory intended.

By using the factory tailgate hinge mounting points, it spreads the load of the spare tire over a larger area for maximum strength and durability easily out performing the Mopar Hinge Reinforcement upgrade. Internal gussets and bracing in the stock JL body supports the Alpha HD Hinged Spare Tire Carrier and your larger tire, eliminating all stress from the tailgate providing peace of mind.

Compared to the JK piece, the new JL Alpha Tire Carrier spans nearly the width of the tailgate for superior weight distribution. Additionally, the updated design features a one-piece forged steel hinge that ties the top and bottom factory hinge locations together as well as additional vertical braces for increased rigidity and strength. The Alpha HD Spare Tire Carrier also provides additional mounting points for off-road accessories such as a Hi-Lift jack and fluid containers. The adjustable Tire Carrier is constructed from strong and lightweight 6061-T6 extruded aluminum.

Although the Alpha HD Adjustable Spare Tire Mount can be used alone, it has been designed to be installed in conjunction with the Alpha HD Hinged Spare Tire Carrier included in this all-inclusive kit. The Tire Mount can support the additional weight of a full-size spare tire by securely mounting the tire to the Tire Carrier and tailgate. Complete adjustability includes vertical as well as fore and aft adjustments so you can be sure it will work with almost any application.

The Alpha HD Adjustable Spare Tire Mount Kit includes a quick-release 3rd Brake Light Mount and hard-anodized billet aluminum Rearview Camera Mount. The heavily gusseted Tire Mount is formed and welded from CNC laser cut steel for superior strength.
