Quality


This is very solid and was ease to install.


The handle mechanism is well built and one of the best that i’ve seen on the market.


Latches securely, 35” spare tire does not block your view through the back window.


The only thing that could make it better is a built in chase to receive the brake light wiring going back to the tailgate.

Price


The amazon price for this item is a bargain, especially with the free shipping.


Would give it five stars if the price was better.

Shipping


Shipped fast and was exactly what i needed.


It arrived before they said it would and we were very pleased with that!


So the tire carrier i received was just a bit off but the customer service from smittybilt was amazing once they got back with me.


There was some damage to the parts but the seller was very fast about getting new parts shipped

Packaging/appearance


Arrived as advertised and in great shape.

Competitiveness


I bought both the xrc bumper and the swing away tire carrier together.


As far as i'm concerned that's just one less bulb to worry about replacing, but it might be an issue for others.
