XOOKUN Heavy-Duty Spare Tire Carrier for Jeep Wrangler JK/JKU 2007–2018 — Adjustable Bolt-On Powder-Coated Steel

The XOOKUN Heavy Duty Spare Tire Carrier is a bolt-on steel bracket that secures and raises the rear spare wheel on Jeep Wrangler JK/JKU models from 2007 to 2018 for a stable, rust-resistant fit.

Designed specifically for Jeep Wrangler JK and JKU years 2007–2018, this spare tire carrier replaces the factory fitment with a stronger, adjustable mounting bracket. Built from two 4.5mm steel plates and double-bolt hardware, it increases clearance between the tire and bumper, resists corrosion with a black textured powder coating, and installs without drilling or permanent modification.

How does this carrier fit my 2007–2018 Jeep Wrangler JK/JKU?

The XOOKUN bracket is engineered to align with the factory spare-mounting points on JK and JKU models, so it installs using the existing spare tire hardware. No cutting, welding, or drilling is required—simply remove the original carrier hardware and replace it with the XOOKUN assembly.

• Direct bolt-on installation to factory mounting locations
• Works with OEM spare tire studs and nuts
• Fits both two-door JK and four-door JKU configurations

Why choose a multi-stage adjustable spare bracket?

The multi-stage adjustment lets you set the bracket height to match different tire diameters and offset preferences, preventing the spare from rubbing the bumper or dragging. This flexibility is useful for owners who upgrade to larger tires or run varied wheel sizes for trail and road use.

• Adjusts up and down to accommodate larger or smaller spare tires
• Helps avoid bumper interference and improves rear clearance
• Allows simple reconfiguration when changing wheel sizes

What materials and finish protect the carrier from off-road conditions?

XOOKUN constructs the carrier from two heavy-duty 4.5mm steel plates with reinforced double-bolt mounting to withstand heavy loads and trail abuse. A textured black powder coat provides a durable, corrosion-resistant finish that performs well in wet, salty, and muddy environments.

• Thick steel plate construction for high load capacity
• Double-bolt fasteners for increased structural security
• Black textured powder coating resists rust and abrasion

How straightforward is installation and maintenance?

Installation is intentionally simple—mount the bracket to the original spare tire location and secure with the supplied fasteners, no special tools beyond standard hand tools are required. Routine checks for tightness and corrosion prevention (cleaning and touch-up coating if chipped) keep the carrier performing long-term.

• No drilling or vehicle modification needed
• Installs with basic hand tools in a short timeframe
• Low maintenance: inspect bolts and finish periodically

Who is this for: The XOOKUN Heavy Duty Spare Tire Carrier is aimed at Jeep Wrangler JK/JKU owners (2007–2018) who want a stronger, adjustable, and corrosion-resistant spare wheel mount—especially those using larger-than-stock tires or who regularly off-road. It suits do-it-yourself installers, overlanders, and anyone seeking a durable, bolt-on upgrade that preserves factory mounting points without permanent vehicle alterations.
