Upgrade your Jeep Wrangler JL with the Rugged Ridge Spartacus HD Tire Carrier Hinge Casting, engineered to provide increased strength and stability when carrying oversized wheels and tires. Designed for extreme off-road use, this precision die-cast aluminum hinge casting helps manage the additional force and vibration generated by larger tire combinations while reducing unnecessary weight compared with steel construction. The one-piece design rigidly connects the tire carrier wheel mount to the reinforced rear quarter panel for dependable support and long-term durability.
Forged steel hinge brackets and hardened steel pins deliver substantially greater load capacity than factory tailgate hinges, helping reduce wear and extend service life. The carrier maintains one-handed access to the cargo area and is compatible with original-equipment and most aftermarket rear bumpers. Installation requires no drilling, making it a practical upgrade for 2018-2020 Jeep Wrangler JL applications. For complete tire-carrying capability, pair this hinge casting with the Rugged Ridge Spartacus HD Tire Carrier Wheel Mount, Part Number 11546.52, for wheel and tire combinations up to 37 inches.
Finished in a durable black powder coat, the Rugged Ridge Spartacus HD Tire Carrier Hinge Casting is built for demanding trail conditions and daily use. It accommodates both 5x4.5-inch and 5x5-inch wheel bolt patterns and is designed to improve the stability of an external spare tire carrier without compromising cargo-area access. Patent pending. Professional installation is recommended to ensure proper alignment and secure operation.
