Maximus-3 JL Tire Carrier Sport: The Ultimate Upgrade for Serious Jeep Wrangler JL Owners

For Jeep Wrangler JL owners who have upgraded to larger spare tires, the factory tire carrier can quickly become a weak point. The Maximus-3 JL Tire Carrier Sport (JL2002TC) is engineered to provide a stronger, more versatile solution that supports oversized tires while maintaining smooth day-to-day functionality.

Built for Bigger Adventures

The Maximus-3 Sport Modular Rear Tire Carrier is designed specifically for the 2018+ Jeep Wrangler JL and JLU. Unlike basic tire relocation brackets, this system is a complete carrier solution capable of supporting tires up to 40 inches in diameter.

Key highlights include:

• Holds tires up to 40 inches

• Heavy-duty tubular steel construction

• Adjustable tire mounting system

• Integrated backup camera bracket

• Heavy-duty hinges and reinforcement brace

• 100% bolt-on installation with no cutting or drilling required

• Textured black powder-coat finish for durability

Designed for Strength and Smooth Operation

One of the standout features of the JL Tire Carrier Sport is its body-mounted tubular design, which distributes weight more effectively than stock setups. Maximus-3 also incorporates an articulating hinge system that synchronizes with the Wrangler's tailgate, allowing the carrier and rear door to open together seamlessly.

The carrier utilizes:

• Wide hinge bearing points for improved load distribution

• Self-lubricating bronze bearings

• Integrated pre-tension mechanism to reduce rattles and vibration

• Reinforcement brace for additional structural support,

This results in effortless one-handed operation while maintaining stability even with oversized spare tires mounted on the rear.

Modular by Design

The "Sport" designation is only part of the story. This carrier is built around a modular platform that can be expanded with accessories to support off-road and overlanding adventures.

Optional mounting solutions can accommodate:

• Hi-Lift jacks

• Shovels

• RotopaX fuel and water containers

• NATO cans

• LED work lights

• Reverse lights

• CB antennas

• Trail flags and more

For Jeep enthusiasts who demand flexibility, this modularity makes the carrier much more than simply a place to mount a spare tire.
