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)

As NZ's official Rough Country importer, Magwarehouse stocks this locally so you're not waiting on international shipping. Drop into our Manukau workshop at 8 Lambie Dr — no appointment needed — or give us a call on 09 250 1803 to sort one out today.
