I have my 305/70 17 which is basically 34" on my stock carrier.  It rest on my bumper which helps support the weight.  I had the Teraflex tire relocator and it rattled like crazy and bent my tailgate.  I would recommend keeping the stock one on the JK.  The steel on the tailgate is weak.  Chrysler cheapened it from the TJ that will supprt the extra weight.

Sorry to hijack the thread, just my 2 cents.

Sorry Ed - wrong bolt pattern.  Mine is 5x4.5", JKs and more recent Grand Cherokees are 5x5"
