Better Options Out There...

Body Armor 4x4® - Swing Arm Carrier

Added weight to the back of the truck changes the handling, poor performance as a result. The bumper does not have slots designated for plate lights, so you have to find other options for that and then adjust the wiring. The mount completely blocks the back-up camera next to the tailgate handle. If you want to keep that option, you have to buy an aftermarket kit to install the camera somewhere else. The assembly adds at least another foot onto the length of the truck. The mount is not tight to the tailgate and the weight of the tire causes the carrier to sag.

There Are Better Options Out There.

Body Armor 4x4® - Swing Arm Carrier

Assembly is heavy; changes truck handling. License plate lights need to be purchased separately and re-wired. Assembly completely blocks back-up camera located next to tailgate handle. You can find other after-market back-up camera solutions, but you'd have to re-route the connections through the tailgate and bumper. $1,000 isn't really worth the hassle of customization of wiring harnesses in my opinion. And, the assembly adds at least another foot onto the length of the truck; the mount isn't tight to the tailgate.

Body Armor Swing Arm Tire Carrier

Delivery of all of the items that I ordered was very prompt, no issues with shipping. The tire carrier looks and works great! It isn't too difficult to install, but you will need a large socket to tighten the bolt on the shaft. Also, the standard lug nuts may not fit your wheels if you have after market. My biggest problem was that I wanted to install the gas can and high lift jack carriers and the swing arm was not drilled to accept these nor was a pattern provided. The instructions for the installation of the gas can and high lift jack carriers indicated that these holes were provided. I called Body Armor customer service multiple times and never got an answer.
