Want to load up your TJ with a 37” or smaller tire without needing an aftermarket bumper? Rugged Ridge has you covered with the Spartacus heavy-duty tire carrier. Its sturdy aluminum construction replaces your TJ’s factory tailgate hinges entirely with a substantially stronger hinge assembly able to support the weight of oversized off-road tires while maintaining the factory mounting points.
Hardened steel hinge pins finished with a durable black textured powdercoat allow smooth, one-hand tailgate operation, while the rugged steel wheel mount bolts to the TJ tailgate in the factory location and relocates the third brake light for added safety. The Spartacus is backed by an industry-leading five-year warranty.

- Allows for mounting of oversized off-road tires up to 37”.
