Today, I received my Duck Tuff tire carrier. So I am wanting to see how you all have finished yours off.
My thoughts exactly. That is why I'm interested in seeing some finished carriers. Thanks for the input.no pics to share since i dont have one but i personally like the swing out part to be color matched and the lower clamp/hitch part to be black
Pics are it ain’t so…lolMine is not a Duff's but it is body color and I think it looks good.
Here it is...Pics are it ain’t so…lol
It and the truck looks great. Did you build it?Here it is...
Is this the Duff tuff one? It looks different, I love it!Here it is...
Thanks, It is not the Duff's carrier.Is this the Duff tuff one? It looks different, I love it!
Thanks for the information about the tire mounting. I will test mine out before any paint is applied. I have 35x12.5s as well. Are your wheels 17s?Heres mine. I was kind of dissapointed in the tire fitment of the wheel mounting area myself. I had to weld some longer studs on and space the center out a bit to get my 35x 12.50 tire to mount . But all in all it is a well made product

Yea 17”Thanks for the information about the tire mounting. I will test mine out before any paint is applied. I have 35x12.5s as well. Are your wheels 17s?
I really like this and the fact that the wheel is on the driver's side. Also, looks pulled into the body so it doesn't look like it's floating.Here it is...
Hi Mike, no offence taken and thanks for the clarification. And thanks gentlemen for the additional information. Sometime this week, I will tryout the fitment of my tire and well combo and post my results.That is super awesome and I am excited for you! I run one of these on my 72 Bronco and absolutely love it. I like what others said and make the frame assembly black so it disappears and then paint the tire carrier body color. I chose to go gloss black powder coat on everything and it looks really good on my Bronco.

Not trying to be a tool but It is actually not a Duck Tuff Tire carrier. But it is a Duff Tuff Tire carrier
I was in the same boat as you with my tire and wheel. I ended up finding longer studs with the same size knurl from Oreily's so they just lightly pressed in like the ones it comes with and then I double stacked 2 of the 1/4" thick universal wheel spacers Oreily's carries. I am pretty sure this is an issue with certain wheels. The total width and the back space combined with the width of the tire. It is definitely a moving target and hard to make a product that fits all combinations of wheels and tires.
