Install of a 06 OEM Rear Tire Carrier on a 04 H2

[NJ H2]

What ... you think you can come on here once every 6 months and ask millions of questions? That's not very cosmopolitan of you!

i had a 03 suv and now a 06 sut ,the only difference is the 3rd bolt on the passenger side.i just removed my spare tire carrier and put suv stock tow hooks on an they fit fine.you can probably get away with not putting the 3rd bolt in.but i would try to drill and tap it ,it must be there for some reason ,apparently extra support on the swing out side.

I think they changed the 2 little set screws to a full size 3rd bolt. Should be a simple install. Put on the bracket, tap for the third bolt, drill, tap, install. 5 -10mins tops!
