ORF Tire/Can Carrier Fit An 06' Rubi?

[Dezdan]

[COLOR="DarkRed"]Howdy!

I was wondering if anyone knows if O-R Fab's Swing-away Tire/Can Carrier for 03-05 TJ's will fit on an 06' Rubi? I have some other questions about the install, but I will wait to see if anyone here has done the install themselves.

Thanks,

I dont see why not, but you might want to contact ORFab to make sure.

you'll deffinately want to ask them directly. from what i understand there were some hinge changes on the 06.
minor changes, but not all aftermarket fabbers have yet adapted their swing outs to it yet.

[COLOR="DarkRed"]Thanks for the info! I am going to write ORF and see what they have to say. While I am at it, I will ask them if they have anything to make use of the third brake light.

[COLOR="DarkRed"]Opps, I forgot to follow up here. I contacted ORF and they immediately answered all questions I had including the big one of IF it will fit an 06 Rubi which I was told it WILL.

Thanks,

You'll like your new ORF carrier. Mine has been carrying two full jerry cans and a 35" tire for nearly five years and it's still as completely rattle-free and quiet as the day I installed it. When installing it, set the left-hand catch for the swing-out assembly so it is maybe 3/8" lower than the right side to compensate for the weight of everything. When the heavy tire and jerry cans are mounted, it'll close at catch-level if you do.
