Measuring and mounting
A spare tire impact bumper takes the force of a rear collision and helps protect the spare’s mount from being struck. Because the part is only 1.62 inch long, the most important step is comparing its footprint with the bumper area on your vehicle. Measure the mount points, the clearance around the spare, and the space behind the bumper before deciding whether the part fits your setup.
Older Wrangler bumpers and the mounts around them show age through rust, cracked welds and loose hardware. Clean the mounting surfaces before fitting, and check bolts after the first few drives. Impact parts also work with the rest of the rear end, so inspect the spare carrier and tire clamps at the same time for wear.
- Measure the mount area before ordering
- Clean rust from mounting surfaces
- Check bolts after the first few drives
- Inspect nearby spare carrier hardware
