Expound? Hmmmm....Can you expound? My light clears ok.
I have 37" KO2s. They fit on the spare tires 3rd brake light but, this light is close to the top of the tire. I added a bumper to resolve that. See earlier in my posts.

Oh I see. I'm talking about the bumpers at the bottom of the tire. I have good clearance around the light/bracket.Expound? Hmmmm....

There was another post of installing a wheel spacer on the tire carrier to allow more room.Oh I see. I'm talking about the bumpers at the bottom of the tire. I have good clearance around the light/bracket.
I never considered using jeep ones. I went ahead and ordered the Energy Suspension set. The reviews say about 5" long so I'll have to cut about half off.Here is another option I thought was cool as I was browsing earlier.

Thank you for this. Followed your lead and did this today. Worked out perfectly.Finally got my spare on. These things are massive. Much thicker and longer, and harder too. *snicker*
Had to trim the nipple off and drill out to use the oem fasteners. Then trimmed the excess length off at an angle to fit the shape of the tire better.
AKA the pursuit of happiness.Is this something I will need to anticipate being an issue as well? I just upgraded to 35's, and will be installing a relocation kit this weekend.
Also....this gave me a chuckle
These just plugged right into the tailgate just like the stock ones?Finally got my spare on. These things are massive. Much thicker and longer, and harder too. *snicker*

They have a nipple on them that's supposed to plug in but it's too big. I shaved it off, drilled a hole, and used the original fasteners.These just plugged right into the tailgate just like the stock ones?
Was that the right amount? I’m moving from the black steelies on my BD to 33” tires and want to make sure I trim the right amount.That sounds about right, I went the other way. I went from an Outer Banks spare to a Badlands spare and calculated I needed the cut 7/16 off of those (Outer Banks) bumpers for the Badlands tire to fit.
