FIGURE 7, EXPLODED VIEW OF LATCH ASSEMBLY.
19. There is a flat plate welded to the tire carrier framework. A rubber bumper should be
mounted to either the flat plate or the tailgate to prevent the tire carrier from rocking
back and forth on rough terrain on CJ models, see step 24 for CJ installation. The
TJ and YJ have these rubber bumpers mounted on the tailgate already. It may be
necessary to shim the driver’s side top bumper out away from the tailgate to have
slight pressure on the flat plate when the assembly is in the closed position. See
Figure 8.
