[QUOTE="Beef, post: 429229, member: 19480"] I recently bought a YJ jeep. The person before me already installed a lift and put wheels from a newer jeep on it. I decided they were ok, but i noticed if you turn the wheel all the way backing up something rubs. I think the tire is just catching the leaf spring. They put 5 x 4.5 to 5.5 conversion spacers on it. They are 1.25 thick. Easy fix, buy 1.5” spacers. But I want to mount the spare tire on the back tire carrier, and I just bought a matching used rim from eBay. Can I just use one of the old 1.25” spacers for it to fit? Will the original spare tire carrier work with the spacer?
