Stock Jeep JL tailgate with a heavy 37 inch tire. 3,000 mile review. 

Absolutely too funny! By far the 37' tire on Rhino wheels definitely weighs more than your beautiful assistant, Julianne. Great informative video.

Thanks for the detailed video. That really helps show finer points about the tire size and weight on the tire carrier.

Not a fan of the unlimiteds but your Rubicon on those military style rims with 37's is bad ass. Jeep on! 🇺🇸

Compliments to the lovely assistant.

add the MOPAR reinforcement kit ASAP. It might look good now but if it was rubbing on your bumper now you got the makings of a expensive problem on the trail.

I would recommend the reinforcement for both the tire carrier and hinge. The weight limit for the carrier is only 85 lbs. The hi ges can most likely handle the weight.

Great video! I'm at 10,000 miles and my bodylines are all the same. With all the hype I used a welding gauge to measure the gaps when I put 37s on at 587 miles. If anything the tailgate has gone a hair up and that is probably from when the spare hit dirt going up an incline @ 4500 miles. BTW the 37 Ridge Grapplers don't rub like the Trail Grapplers.

Loving those aerial shots!

Estimates the rim and tire weighs 120llbs. then gives a sly smile at the camera.

Pull that black panel off the inside of the tailgate. Then look at the area on the backside of the hinges. That is where my sons Jeep cracked the sheet metal with just a 35 on it.

very cool! I had to run mine for a few w/o the mopar kit, but did add it - mostly because it looks so cool!

Well you guys answered my question for 35 , I definitely won't need reinforcement on my JL

Nice video man, I didn’t realize a 37 would fit without the bracket.

I got 37 12 50 cooper mud terrain on my JL with 4000 miles and it has the same plastic bumper. My tire has touched the plastic bumper from the start. But I think your rim weighs more than mine. I have no noise or anything. Been taking it out easy 4x4ing 2 times a week.

What worried me about going with that wheel in the beginning was my friend thats Discount Tire manager said when that wheel gets mud caked on the inside that wheel it's going to be hard to get off. I'll have to get on the floor underneath and spray it out or dig it out if it's wet mud because there's no holes on the outside of the wheel to spray it off. Does make sense but I love that wheel a lot

WOW that tire and rim set up weighs more than my 37" NEXEN Rodian MTX ans 17" Dirty Life beadlock set up. Mine is at 122lbs.

Great video, I just got a 19 Rubicon and a Mopar reinforced carrier for my 35 Niitos same as yours,don’t take a chance,nice ride brother and be safe 👍

@ 7:20 the gap between the hinge and body. Is that normal?

Project offroad with the tire off the tailgate lift up on it and see if there's movement in the hinge.

Keep up the good work

Thanks for the review. What lift are you running?

Nice video. Keep us updated on the JL

Well just got me a 2019 with 37 Toyos and trying to see what options there is to mount it on the back

Also you need the relocation bracket so it doesn't sit on the bumper. Mopar makes that to for about 175. but get both to be safe . you spent a lot of money like we all did to not take a chance on that

You really should love the channel keep the vids coming

If you don’t have a big ass Jack in that Jeep you might as well leave that big ass heavy wheel in the garage and call it a day lol. I suggest throw that bumper in the GARBAGE or better yet FCA’s Garbage and get a proper Metal bumper and hinge the tire off that. I wouldn’t mess around with the “Reinforcement”. I also think your Jeep will thank you in the end for not supporting all that weight on those lil hinges.... And the bumper/gate would look more BAD ASS in the end anyways. 👍🏾 Oh and if you must complete the “Look” slap a shovel on top! Lol.

Black Rhino rims love putting bolt heads on everything.

Definitely add a new rear bumper that utilizes a braced rear tire carrier. Scott

Great video, really enjoyed it along with your iDrive one.

Truck looks great! Just a tip, cut out the center cap next time with a hole saw and a drill. Also if you need to change the spare you may not be able to put one of the other 4 onto the mount because of the camera being in the way. Just a thought though. Maybe it will just cover the camera but still fit?

The tire weighs more for sure!

Awesome looking ride. Perfect! I love red. I plan on obtaining a 2 door red Rubicon in the future. Stock suspension? If a lift what size did you go with? I noticed you were using torx drivers on the allen or hex head bolts to remove the center cap, Just wondering why?

I guess I can stop worrying about the weight of the 33s I put on a 2018 stock Sport S. Lol

If you make it up to Raleigh I'd love to connect. We have the same setup and wheels but I'm running 35 STT Pro's. Building my JL for overlanding step by step, always good to have someone to bounce ideas off of. I love the wheels on my rig as well but they are very heavy....

You should definitely do a reinforcement. It will eventually crease. And it's really at risk when open. All it takes is one person leaning on it to far exceed the weight capacity of the hinge..... Ask me how I know.... Lol

Good to know- I’d reinforce just Incase tho. Ordered mine with the Mopar reinforcement

Running 12.5 x 37 on oem wheels over 10,000 miles, no wear or flex.

Definitely reinforce the tailgate or get a tire carrier bumper. If you start to do more aggressive off-roading you will have issues.

Liked because girl power!! Julianne did a great job on those nuts!! Merci

Love the videos. Do you anticipate any non-tailgate issues with that heavy of a set up (other than reduce gas mileage)? Needing to regear, etc.. ?

Those must be the world’s smallest 37” tire

why chance it? reinforce it!

Nice Jeep! New Subscriber!

Tht tire is a monster! I vote a new tire carrier brother! Lol 🤙

I briefly ran my 37 with the smittybuilt adapter while waiting for the rugged ridge carrier to ship. No way I would continue without a carrier. The tire would bounce around like crazy.

Mopar or Teraflex have a nice setup for that thanks for the video new subscriber

Hey there, what did ya end up doing? How did it work? Super confused here with a new JLU. Ran a JKU for 7 years with 132’ spare and no extra support. No sag no noise after 7yrs of semi serious off road

The stock hinges would not survive long off road, supporting that much weight. There are different kinds of reinforcement. The kind that makes most sense is bumper/tire carrier that distributes the weight to both ends of the bumper.

I AM VERY IMPRESS YOUR WIFE ( A PLUS) .SHE DID TRY HER BEST

What size was the rim itself? It looks amazing.

How’s it been holding up? Still no damage to your tailgate?

Nice Jeep... we are wanting a JL as well. Not being an ass here but, if you can afford a new Rubicon and new wheels, why don’t you just put a nice rear bumper with a heavier carrier on it ?

if ur not off roading ur fine, but 142 is really heavy

No relocation bracket? I have 37s same wheels and mine wouldn’t budge without a relocation bracket.

Stand in front of the 4 way when spinning it so it won't hit you.

Do you know LITE BRIGHT if you do you ought to do your JEEP like they did theirs they have their BIG Spare Tire on the back of their JEEP when they go trailing especially & they just had an Air Compressor System installed on the underneath of their JEEP up by the Catalytic Converter so if they or anyone with them on the trails with them have any Tire problems they can come to the rescue with their System on their JEEP

Hi, what’s the song at 5:00? And kudos to the misses for Untorquing those lugs with the crossbar:)

Reinforce it for sure!

Nice setup! Did the stock lug nuts fit with the armories?

Eventually it will tweak,even more when and if you hit the trails.Then the damage is done.

That's cool to know! So it's holding the 37" tire on the completely stock setup? I was going to put 35's on mine and was thinking it would need to have the relocation bracket to raise it up.

holy those rims must be heavy

Holy shit 143lbs? What's your MPG? And here I was scared of a setup that weighs 125lbs 😂

Do you have a problem with your back up sensors going off none stop?

What tyres are you running ,whats the road noise like?

Have you considered a spare tire delete kit ?

Do you still get good gas mileage with 37s . i have a JL Sahara & i want 37 inch tires.

Did you use beads to balance your tires?

@Project offload what lift kit did you put on ?

we get it, its the heaviest tire set up your gonna get😂

You clearly dont take that truck off road. Not that it matters, because ive seen them fall off on street queens. Your hinges will eventually sag and the mount will inevitably crack.

On that wheel did you cut a hole in the center of the wheel center cap for the rear camera ? looks like you did. what is the off set on the wheels ? and can you post a pic from the front ? i want to go with that wheel but was told it will stick out about half inch on both sides compared to my methods now. so i would like to see it from the front please thanksif you go to my Facebook page you can p.m. me and send me a photo I appreciate it if you don't mind whenever you get time

Where can I get me one of them sexy assistants? She got any sisters, and to comment on the tire carrier you must drive mostly on straight no pot hole infested streets or do much of roads because I’ve seen 35’s snap the plastic with too many bumps, looking into putting either the teraflex or a complete bumper tire carrier switch discurso after adding a box to the tailgate. Any who doing forget about the info at the beginning

I just installed 35in by 12.5 tires on my jl. I haven't ran into any issues just the backup camera cover is giving me an issue to get put back in. Did u have this issue?

New sub #teamjuliann

Have you had any problems with the paint on you Black Rhino rims?

Get that young lady a battery impact

Ok. Mopar has a reinforced tire carrier for the stock tire carrier is not designed for a 37 inch tire. So why would you not install what MOPAR tire carrier bolt on system??? The engineers that have already spent a lot of time money and energy ; so you would not have to shorten the life of the door, hinges, bolts.. The hinges are not good if it has drooped 1/16th of an inch. pull out a micrometer. some measuring devices other than your naked eye. By the time you see anything your eye. your too late...

Go off-roading a few times and see

Anybody know how many inches this jeep is lifted?

3000 mile mall crawl review! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Qué diablos hace ese Jeep con los rines y neumáticos de un Rezvani Tank ?

Great video! Ha ha

With this being a “Rubicon” it should come standard with steel bumpers and reinforcement.... I don’t think Chrysler wants to be responsible when these oversized tires rip out of that paper thin gate lol. I just wonder about long term wear and tear it has over time on the hinges. But nice grocery getter. 👍🏾

The tire weighs more.

Ordered my JL with the Mopar tailgate reinforcement, as I’ll be running 35s. Larger than 35s is completely pointless for anything outside of a trail dedicated rig.

Perfect? You use to have a gap between the tire and the bumper, and now you don't 🫣

that's way too much weight eventually you're going to have a creased I've been or something's going to mess your tailgate up and then it's too late that's great that you were able to go 3000 miles but why chances you're going to wait till you have your tailgate ruined and then say I got to buy a new one not worth it thanks for the video but I would stop where you're at and put a reinforcement on there it's not worth it don't cost a lot of money once you see it

Lose the music, and you will have a better video.

Be careful in South Carolina. I used to live there & the demographics are ... sketchy elements with enough undesirables - not going to elaborate due to RU-vid police.

I would just sell it. Its a Fiat product, it will explode soon enough.
