Installing Barricade HD Tire Carrier on a JK Wrangler
After installing the new wheels and tires last fall, this was the first nice day we had to finally get the spare tire mounted to our 2013 JK Wrangler. This Barricade HD Tire Carrier with Mount from Extreme Terrain had been sitting in our garage for a few months, waiting for us to install it. Things did not go according to plan, though, so check out what we found ourselves up against, and how we overcame.

You know you've really done something when you're ordering quarter panels and fenders for your wife's Jeep JK Wrangler. Never clear coated a single body panel before - what could go wrong??
Getting 4DT's XJ ready
Просмотров 432 года назад
My new 1996 Jeep Cherokee XJ needs some basic maintenance before it's ready for state safety inspection and registration. After the requisite Dumb Thing, we check over the brakes, rejuvenate some wheel studs, and discover one of a few lurking issues that we need to take care of! After a transmission filter and pan gasket, we need to replace quite a few light bulbs. Then we take care of the hatc...

A quick introduction to our new-to-us '96 Jeep Cherokee (XJ). This is primarily going to be a wheelin' vehicle, but it's a Jeep - we've gotta customize it. The first video in (hopefully) a long series...

    To take one of these off the jk, would I start by removing the hinge pin?

    I had a similar problem, mine came without the hardware and the hinge pins. Any suggestion on where to get hinge pins?

    Did you ever get a lug nut on the bottom stud? Is it safe to run with a lug nut missing?

    • @DumbDogDoingDumbThings
      @DumbDogDoingDumbThings Год назад

      No, I never did get one on there. But the tire's still hanging on there tight and solid as can be! I'm not worried about it falling off.

    If you come up with a solution to replacing the door catch please let me know bc I have a sneaky suspicion I'm going to rip my wires out

    • @DumbDogDoingDumbThings
      @DumbDogDoingDumbThings 2 года назад

      My fear as well.... I am planning on making a strap from nylon webbing to take the place of the catch, much like it is on the doors. Let the webbing pull taut before the wires do. I think the catch broke because the pivot point of the hinges moved - and the new pivot point just doesn't jive with the catch. Would've been nice to know that BEFORE we destroyed ours, right??

  • @michaelsmedley7123
    @michaelsmedley7123 2 года назад

    I ran into the same problems...first when I put the arm on with the spacers the main part that mounts to the center of the tail was so far away I couldn't get the bolts anywhere near the tail gate, so I tried swapping spacers and stiff still no luck so i figured it was bent or some, I messaged extreme terrain, got it set up to be replaced. 2 weeks later I try again..same damn thing I tried a few different things and was finally able to get the bolts to pull in. Then the first time I opened it, also wrecked the door catch inside. Also took me all day but I also now have a functioning spare tire..I got a few small tweaks but it's working.

    • @DumbDogDoingDumbThings
      @DumbDogDoingDumbThings 2 года назад

      Yes, I had the same problem of the carrier being so far away from the tailgate that the bolts wouldn't even reach to start pulling it together! I put a straight edge along the back of my bracket and it was definitely bent. But I had enough go-arounds with Extreme Terrain trying to buy a used one that I didn't even bother sending this one back - I had NO confidence that any other one would be any better (sounds like it wouldn't). So sorry that you had to go through all of that as well... Guess there's a reason it's the cheapest of its kind on the market. I give the product 3 stars, and the instructions just 1 star - I'm just not sure if that's out of 5 stars, or 10!!!!

    It looks so good!! Sucks that it was such a pain to put on. I'm hoping I need one soon 😂😂

    • @DumbDogDoingDumbThings
      @DumbDogDoingDumbThings 2 года назад

      It does look good! And even though the tire isn't clamped against anything, and only really has one torqued lug nut (ended up not being able to get more than 1 tight, no matter how I played musical torquing) it really doesn't wobble. Might be a different story on the road, but it's as good as it's going to get!!

      Did some research on that - it sounds like a real mess! I think that you keep watching my channel, you'll soon realize that I have NO idea what I'm doing. 😆 And I'm probably the last person you want working on your XJ!! Mine doesn't even have ABS - is doing an ABS delete a thing that's possible??
