I might be able to get 2 out of the 3Looks good so far. There's 3 things I want in a tire carrier:
1) don't block the rear camera
2) don't block the rear window
3) don't block the license plate
Yea rear window will be toughI might be able to get 2 out of the 3
We have that factory...it's under the rear cargo deck. Solved. You are welcome. (For those who don't know my sarcasm...) Realistically with plate/camera/window location and size of full spare, hitting all three targets is near if not completely impossible. It's 17" from camera to rear window and a tire is roughly 29".Looks good so far. There's 3 things I want in a tire carrier:

I’ve noticed lately especially with those newer to the forum, my sarcasm is completely misunderstood.We have that factory...it's under the rear cargo deck. Solved. You are welcome.

We are going to add some gussets to the corners and then take it offroad to see if we have any movementGood job! Did you do anything to minimize the clanking sounds going over bumps etc?
Wish I could like twice!! Can you post another photo from the side? I'm interested in the clearance between the tire/carrier and the hatch/rear window.Here is a update on the tire carrier just need to add some support brace to it and it's done. It came out nice doesn't cover the back up camera and don't have to relocate license.
