If you've bolted a bigger spare onto your Jeep Wrangler JL or JL Unlimited, you'll want to make sure the swing-out tailgate can handle the extra load. Larger aftermarket wheels and tyres put real strain on the hinges and spare tyre mounting points — and over rough terrain, that stress adds up fast. Rough Country's Tailgate Reinforcement Kit is a simple, smart fix that ties the hinge and spare tyre mount together with a solid-steel plate, spreading the weight more evenly and reducing the risk of long-term damage to your rear gate.
- Solid steel construction with a powder-coated black finish for lasting durability
- Evenly distributes weight across both tailgate hinges
- Compatible with both the factory spare carrier and Rough Country aftermarket spare tyre carrier kits
- Straightforward bolt-on installation — no drilling or fabrication needed
- Backed by Rough Country's Lifetime Replacement Guarantee
- Fits Jeep Wrangler JL and Wrangler Unlimited JL (2018–2026)
