00:00 Check out MetalCloak's removable tub mount tire carrier for the JK Wrangler.
00:03 Hey. Scott Becker here.
00:06 This is the tire carrier you have all been asking for.
00:09 You can choose to bring your spare tire with you or take it off.
00:14 With your daily driving or out on the trail, get a close fitting, tight to the body design that maximizes your departure clearance when taking your Jeep off road.
00:20 The stout carrier comes standard with the hardware to be bolted on one side for typical function, or can be optioned with a tool-less quick release feature that will allow the carrier to swing out to either side, the driver or passenger side.
00:28 And with this option added, you can even remove the tire carrier completely without any tools.
00:30 It's your choice.
00:32 The swing out includes simple stop pins that may be put into different positions to keep the tire carrier from swinging out too far or from closing accidentally.
00:36 The swing out is preset to stop at hundred and ten degree angle from the gate.
00:39 At the heart of the MetalCloak swing out tire carrier are low friction Delrin bushings at every corner for maintenance free and squeak free operation.
00:44 You see typical tire carriers rattle and shake, not MetalCloak's, we utilize Delrin polymer bushings floating on o-rings on all four contact points that help reduce vibration and noise in the cab while maintaining a sturdy mount for your spare tire.
00:52 Each of these bushings are comprised of two parts that fasten together with screws, making this bushing simple to install without a need for a press.
00:55 The Delrin bushing is strong and rigid, providing a very high resistance to repeated impacts, has long term fatigue endurance with excellent resistance to moisture.
00:58 The removable tire carrier features a fully adjustable wheel mount that easily holds the weight of a forty inch tire.
01:02 Our design is made to hold the additional weight with strong inch and a half one twenty wall steel tubing and thick three sixteenth inch steel plate.
01:06 Best of all, it's made right here in the USA.
01:08 So if you want a secure rattle free experience and a tire carrier with efficient features and options you not only wanted, but you need, you found it.
01:12 It's the JK Wrangler removable tub mount tire carrier, exclusively from MetalCloak.
01:16 MetalCloak, it's your Jeep, only better.
