So my jeep came with some stuff done. Lot of Smittybilt stuff. The handle on the tire carrier was missing. I called Smittybilt and the part number they gave me was the handle and it came with the bolt.
Picked it up today and there is no bolt. The shop called Smittybilt and the only way to get the bolt is to buy the whole handle assembly for $130. Just gonna hit up Home Depot and buy a bolt that fits and a washer.
I won't ever buy Smittybilt after that. If I need the handle it's probably a really good assumption that I need the bolt as well.
That said, I'm not surprised after reading a bunch of threads about them.
