Picked this up this morning and will be mounting on Saturday of next week. There doesn't seem to be a thread specific to this Smittybilt TC. This was just released into the wild though from what I understand has been out for a little bit.

This seems to be very similar to other hinge based tire carriers. I did notice one thing as I was going through instructions is that it includes a reinforcement bracket for the hinge bolts (see attachment).
Overall finish looks good. Smooth finish which works well for me. I'll have more comments on fit when I do the install next weekend.
One more option for hinge based tire carrier is awesome. We don't have a lot of options and some have noted issues (there are plenty of threads on the shortcomings of the other products. As I (and others) find things, please post here.
Of note, I am currently using the SB Tire Relocation Kit (7721). It works for my wheel / tire combo. TX roads suck and there are a few potholes so there is probably more than average "shaking". I've had it for 4 months and it has served me well.
