Most accessory videos are dry, poorly made and boring. These are so great - I get the subtle humor as well as the obvious laughs - very entertaining. I'd buy products from this company vs competitors just based on the attention to detail in video production. It must translate (hopefully) over to the attention to detail in their products!
Your videos are very informative... and they crack me up, in a dry and subdued sort of way.
I have this TeraFlex tire carrier with adjustable carrier part and love it...works as advertised. Looks great, clean, able to add their accessories mount and it doesn't rattle!
Love the dry sense of humor. You guys make great products.
Well, I installed mine today. I used an adapter with the tire mount for my 35x12.50 17. I didn't like having to slide the tire mount out so far in order for my tire to actually fit. This way when I crank down the clamp bolts, there's plenty of cylinder to actually clamp on to. I first tried to use the adapter to mount my 12 gallon Titan fuel tank which actually worked out perfect except that the adapter I used was the one I had initially used to mount my tire onto the fuel tank. So that's a no-go unless I get another adapter which I will probably do since I really don't want to get rid of the fuel tank. Aside from that, the install was flawless and the tire carrier is awesome. No more friggin opening a tire swingout just to get to the door.
Just installed mine today, and the quality of this carrier is top notch. Way nicer than some of the bumpers that look like somebody welded up some metal in their garage. No problems with 287/70R17 and 17x9 wheel with 4.5" BS.
The spare should be pressed hard against the hinge portion. Place the spare on the bracket and push into place. Mark on the bracket how far it is, pull the tire off, slide the bracket in another 1/4". Then tighten the pinch bolts and install the spare. You will pull the spare into position by tightening the lugnuts down.
I frinking love your videos!!!!!!! Informative with a lot i mean 💩lot of fun and one of the most helpful videos on RUclips!!!!!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I love your products and videos. Keep up the great work.
Thanks!
I don't own any TeraFlex products (yet, I'll soon be ordering the tire carrier), so I can't vouch for the quality of their products, but there's no denying the quality of these videos. Hilarious!
Haven't laughed that hard in along time "it's 60 pounds a piece ladies can you get this" Hahahaha sounds like me talking to my kids lol
Awesome video
These are some of the funniest videos on RUclips bar none
Hey is that the Mopar bumper on the Blue rig?
This video makes installation simple unless you have taken off an AEV Mount and your tailgate has been modified. My original holes must have been bored out and quarter moon (loose) supports were put in the tailgate. I got the job done, but it was a several hour project!
Very nice video guys!
You can run a 33-35" on the stock tire carrier mounted to the Hinged Tire Carrier. Some have ran 37's for a short time.
Looks like a well thought out solid piece I like it..
I'd go Blue Loctite instead of the Red though..
The new instructions now call for Blue. I just put this carrier and mount on yesterday.
Dennis Wood for President!
great vid. should add at 3:05 to optionally paint the bare metal to prevent rust from starting. can't believe this is how they paint 'em at the factory. half assed!
Thomas Lahr I sanded, primed, and painted the hinge wells.
So if I went from 33s to 35s would I be able to press the old ones out and move them to the higher mounts or would I need a new plate piece for my vehicle
what if you get bigger tires can use studs again just hammer them out?
Lol you guys are so funny I love you're videos
hey, I have a question, I got a few bikes and a spare tire bike carrier. I was planning on upgrading the hinges to the teraflex system but I am not sure if I will run a 33 or 35 in the future, is there a way to remove the studs?
Yes, TeraFlex has front and rear Tera60's.
I just installed my new terraflex hinge and tire carrier. Love it. I had a smittybilt tire carrier before and it popped welds on my tailgate. Terraflex's design is tuff and swings well on its hinges. The tire dose not rattle and I don't hear the noise of stressed metal as I did before. Great product! I'm not very mechanically inclined and I took way too long getting the thing put on. The tire carrier was a more difficult install for me since I accidentally installed two of the lug studs backwards. I did fix the problem and it works fine! I spent about four hours total. It would be a lot quicker for most people.
got mine today!
I am interested in this part. Running 35 BFG KM's on Fuel mavericks. 17x9".
I have seen on a few forums that there are some structural integrity issues with the cast aluminum carrier. Is this true or just haters on sites designed to sell other companies products?
What is the warranty of this product?
I just installed mine today, i love it ! Mounted a 35" on it perfectly, Are these things designed for high speed Sand Dune Offroading ? The reason i ask is because i had the SmittyBilt XRC tire carrier swing, and it kept wobbling till it bent. i would like your input on your design for such activities.
Where do you get that light Mount and license plate bracket?
What over tire carriers will fit with this?
good i go to order my tera60's right now thanks you
This accessory if it eliminates the rattle of the back door? who supports the weight of the tire? the door of the Jeep? or the tire carrier? Thks
Yes it will!
Does the 3rd like bracket assy have license plate mounting holes?
Dennis, you NEVER fail to make me burst out laughing.

Hello. This is quite an off-topic question for a something I am writting. What is the approximate weight of the wheel (wheel + tire) of a military type jeep?
What is the model number for the third mount with the huge tire??
Question - when everything is installed, how close is the spare tire supposed to be to the hinge? I've seen photos where guys are installing it right up against it (rubber is pushing against the carrier) and photos where there's about 1 inch in between. What do you recommend?
Vote Dennis from teraflex for United States President 2016!
what is the wheel on the green jeep?
You said you can run 33"-35" tires on the hinged tire mount carriers... but can I put a 32" spare on there securely?
Which Loctite is recommended?
6" TeraFlex Long Arm Kit with 38" MTR's on Raceline Monster 17" Beadlocks.
ok, but the crd60 or tera60 front axle exist does??
The NEW Jeep Wrangler is quieter inside than ever before, and like this guy says on Motorweek (at time 3;30 in the video listed below); "now that its quieter, you can hear the thin metal on the back gate flexing from the weight of the spare tire over every bump you hit." ( Road Test: 2012 Jeep Wrangler ) . So that makes a product like this almost 'NECESSARY' for everyone.
I love this guy, he's hilarious!
Would this allow me to install a fuel tank like the Titan Trail Trekker (or the ARB) fuel tank behind the spare tire? The Titan is about 110lbs full, plus my stock 31" tire that I believe is about 75lbs (stock '12 rubicon steel wheel).
+rogue109 Yes you can run the TItan with the TeraFlex tire carrier.

I know what just moved to the top of my Christmas list! Thank you!
Raceline wheel that was painted.
Make sure that your spare tire is snug against the tire carrier. If it jiggles around, push the adjustable mount in another 1/4".
Because we want to test our Tera44 vs. the HEMI.
TeraFlex videos remind me of Tim and Eric
That's nice and all but it is still putting all that weight onto the stock hinge location. Those two hinges are not made for that kinda weight. You would have to go into the quarter panel and beef up the sheet metal hinge frame etc. Safe for 33's but after that I would save up and go with the bumper location.
Thanks for leaving tj and yj owners out.
Bear Grylls Sorry there is no way to mount this onto a TJ/JY with how the tubs are made.
OK I have a question. How much weight can this thing handle total?
We don't directly have an official weight rating, but the tire carrier and hinge combo can safely hold up to a 40 inch tire with the right wheel setup and bumper bumper for clearance.
Papa smurf! Dennis, your blue jeep is a bad machine, I'm going to make a field trip to the shop next time I'm in Salt Lake.
The smurf had 38s. But the carrier pins go up to 37"
How big of a tire combo can you run?
drsizzle215 37" tires are what we recommend,
The blue Jeep looks fantastic! how many inches tires is on it?
+Sam L.P Those are 38" tires
+TeraFlexSuspensions Thanks! any axle upgrades to hold the 38" or is the Dana 44 sufficient?
What type of bumper is on the back of this blue jeep?
That is our JK Rear Outback Bumper (part # 4654100)
Correct.
I don’t have the provided bolts, will the factory ones work? Or where can I order the provided bolts
It would depend on which bolts you are referring to, but most of the bolts needed for this kit will be factory bolts and hardware.
@@teraflexsuspensions The M8-1.25 x 35mm Flanged Hex Head Bolts for the carrier, can the factory 30mm be used?
When are we getting one of these for the JL?
We are hoping for a SEMA release this year. As long as we can keep on schedule.
Yes you can. Now if you use a stock wheel you will need a wheel spacer.
The metal in my door has weakened and now makes a sheet metal wobble sound from the tailgate. It isn't coming from the hinges. Will this take complete support off my door and keep it from making that annoying wobble sound? Running 35s on a 17inch rim. teraflexsuspensions
Jacob Casillas If there is already previous damage done to your tailgate, this will not repair it.
Thank you so much teraflexsuspensions ! I'll be buying from you guys shortly!
I just installed this and when installing the carrier onto the hinge, I accidentally put the spacers in as well as the rubber gaskets. Will this lead to any issues down the line? The offset is not too noticeable but it could be worse once a tire is on.
You will want to remove those. They are not needed and push the adjustable mount off center just a bit. We recommend removing the spacers if you installed the package.
@@teraflexsuspensions understood, I contacted your customer support and exchanged messages/pictures with them. They told me I was probably fine by leaving them installed. I'm conflicted now
Hmm, go ahead and remove them just to be safe to not cause any future damage.
@@teraflexsuspensions Sounds good, I was only hesitant because it looks like if I remove the spacers it might not sit flush and will actually angle toward the body side...I'll see what I can do
Will this fit a Right Hand Drive?
Alan Marshall Yes it will.
Yes it doe's.
Funny when he says be careful girls that tire is heavier, don't want to scratch the bumper.
Those are TeraFlex bumpers.
it might fit but it can damage the door ... well 33'' arent that heavy
I have it HD Hinged Carrier and I love it but my question is why Papa Smurf does not have the crd60 ahead .....scuse me for my english
I am Seb Leb and I approve this message LOL
Dat Stache
lol teraflex doesn't pay you enough. for a product video, i can't help but be entertained. no bs, no "mechanic talk" just jeep
I see baphomet
red locktite == bad idea...
+romeoneverdies Why?
+TeraFlexSuspensions any rebuttal for this? I was planning on using Red Loctite but I'm kind of curious since the comment above makes me think otherwise
+Camron Kiekintveld There is nothing wrong with using Red Locktite on this install. If someone doesn't like using red then they can use blue Locktite.
Red Locktite typically requires applied heat to remove (blue does not), but in this case using heavy tools, it will most likely break the bond anyway.
Careful what you say to those girls or they will turn around and kick you in the nuts.
You said at 1:35 "Common girls, its only 60 pounds apiece (for each of you)". Well, those girls don't weigh more than 60 pounds each, so that's why they are struggling. Eventually they will realize that its far easier to kick you than to lift the tire, and that's when YOU are going to be in a ton of hurting.
Me too
Too much JK crap....there are still those of us who drive real jeeps
What is the size lift kit, wheels, and tires on the blue jeep?
