Hey all just installed a new rear bumper/ tire carrier and was wondering if anyone knew where I could find longer (by half an inch or so) bumps that are in the tail gate?

Everything is pretty solid just looking to absorb the tiny rattles I hear on big bumps.

Picture of what I'm looking for. Akzo of the new tire carrier.

just take some heater hose and cut a chunk off and slide it inside the stock bumps and it works perfect.

I don't know how the spare tire bumpers mount on a JL, but on my TJ they used a single bolt.

I lengthened the bumpers on my TJ with a hockey puck. I drilled a hole in the puck, found a longer bolt, and used my belt sander to reduce the thickness of the puck slightly.

They pop in, there’s a little nipple molded in and they just push into the hole.
