Rugged Ridge Spartacus HD Tire Carrier Hinge Casting (11546.61) for Jeep TJ supports up to 35-inch tires with durable forged components.
This heavy-duty hinge casting replaces the factory tailgate hinges on 1997–2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ, Rubicon, and Unlimited models. The die-cast aluminum body, forged steel hinges, and hardened pins increase load capacity without the extra weight of a full steel carrier. Compatible with OE spare mounts or Rugged Ridge HD Wheel Mount, it offers reliable strength and clean one-handed access to the cargo area. Finished in textured black powder coat for corrosion resistance. No drilling required on the tailgate side.
