Sold: Louisiana FS: Teraflex Alpha tire carrier

[Dodgeman70592]

Just received this in and installed yesterday. When I went to put tire on, found out that my wheel hub bore is too small to slide on to mount. I already had torqued the studs in the holes for 37” tires. I will leave them in there for next owner. There is 2 jam nuts included for you to take studs out of holes if you want to run a smaller setup. It will come with all hardware and blue threadlocker. I have taken close up shots of the slight scratches on the nose from trying to mount my tire. My loss is your gain $250 shipped conus.

Looks like Teraflex has removed this from their website. There is still a pic but if you click it, says product not found and if you do a search, nothing comes up. I was looking into this one but have hub centric aftermarket wheels. That sucks.

I bought from Northridge, they still showing product info

I haven't contacted Northridge about it not fitting, doubt they would take it back now that I've tried mounting it. This is definitely something that should be stated in the fitment section from Teraflex though. They need to have a min hub bore requirement.

What size hub bore do you have? I’m interested in this but plan on AEV Borah and KMC Machete

Not sure what's up but it's definitely too big to slide through, by probably close to an eighth all around. The wheels weren't JL specific or anything. Just a 17x9 with a 5x5 pattern

Yeah, I wasn't gonna even try to talk to Northridge about it, figure they would tell me that since I bolted it up and torqued in the studs that it's mine now lol. That's why I'm just trying to sell myself.

Considering milling the nose piece down now to fit my wheels if this doesn't sell soon.

Pending tropical storm/hurricane in my area will likely prevent me from shipping this till early next week
