SUT rear tire carrier removal kit.

[Intercooled]

Anyone have the SMA kist that replaces the stock rear tire carrier? hows he qaulity and look? I'm considering removeing the spare but I'm not sure I like the kit. I dont really care for the chrome. I wish it was all black like stock. I also not a big fan of the license plate being off center.

Intercooled,

I don't have the SMA kit as I didn't like the chrome either. I fabbed by own bracket out of aluminum bar stock. I was rear ended and it destroyed the bracket. Shortly thereafter, I ended up blowing out a tire, and it really sucked not having the spare. I originally removed the spare as I actually use the tailgate and bed, and could not drive with the gate open. I ended up moving the license plate up to hang off the roof, and fabbing a custom spare tire mount that allows the tire to be on the truck and drive with the gate open. Let me know if you want a few photos.

sorry for the slow response and crappy photos, I took them in small format so they could be uploaded. I tried to blow them up, here they are again.
