ICON Body Mount Tire Carrier Kit (Black) - 25226
The tailgate and the tire carrier open and close independently but are tethered together with a heim joint linkage so that accessing the Jeep's rear cargo area is still a single-action process. The ICON Impact Body-Mounted Tire Carrier alleviates these stresses by placing the load of the spare tire's weight almost exclusively on the reinforced rear corner section of the Jeep's body, where the tailgate attaches, rather than on the tailgate itself. The 2-way adjustable tire mount allows for safe, secure mounting of virtually any tire diameter and wheel offset. The ICON Impact Body Mounted Tire Carrier is finished in a durable semi-gloss black multi-stage powder coat.
