Caught the Bug
Just wanted to give some of you a heads up on their tire carrier. Noticed a post for June on another site stating and showing pics of a cracked carrier. Kinda scary. I know they are closed as well. I can post pics if anyone wants to see. Just want to warn some of you.

It's a bummer they went out of business as now there's nobody to warranty that break. Of course, it's things like this that could have put them where they are now.
 
Thanks for that. I built my own and constantly check it for cracks and damage just to be safe.

Are they officially out of business? The website says they are reorg'ing. Granted that could have been the initial plan, which could have fallen through and no one updated the site.

That sucks about the carrier!

Welcome to WAL


As far as I know, they are officially out of business. There was a long post on their social media, and other places a while back stating as such. I have their carrier, and have had no problems out of it but will definitely be keeping a closer eye on it after seeing this.
 
I ran one on my first Jeep and was looking at it for the JK. Had no issues with it. I liked it because you could run any bumper you wanted with that carrier. Will keep an eye on them. I was not near 37s so it was perfect for me.

I ran across a guy who had 40s running that tire carrier. Never had any issues that he said
