RIGd UltraSwing Hitch Carrier Mega-Fit Review. Is It Worth It?

[@ftkobbe]

Nice video. To handle the 37" spare for my 3500, I just installed bumper with tire carrier from Expedition One. Very well built, lots of attention to detail. So far, I'm extremely happy with it. Nice to see an alternative solution.

[@johnkenley4687]

Saving this vid! Been looking for one of these for when i finally get bigger tires

[@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power]

Doesn't look bad, swings out of the way of the tailgate, and mounts as a pass-through hitch receiver: I like it. It looks a little wobbly when the truck is moving, though.

[@JustDiesels]

It can’t be completely rigid or it would tear itself apart, so some “wobble” is necessary. It’s also worth mentioning I was driving over deep ruts from someone that did donuts in the mud last winter haha.

[@srqFF]

I just got one for my Tundra. Great review and great product!

[@surfstarcc1]

Good review, That mounting location makes sense.

[@AZTLANSOLDIER13]

I have one and use a 37 inch tire. World great. The old latch kinda sucks but they now have an updated one.

[@EQ9962]

Like you, I have just rolled the dice and hoped I would not need a spare while up in the high sierras. I have put this in my cart a few times over the last six months but never pulled the trigger. I searched for good reviews to support buying one but there are not many out there. After watching your review I am going to pull the trigger. Thanks for the review. It looks amazing on your rig

[@JustDiesels]

Yeah there was nothing about these! Figured I’d take one for the team and make a video haha. Fun fact, I noticed that CJC is the only place that offers free shipping on these, which actually saves a ton.

[@kkauweloa]

great vid and review. ultraswing on my list now

[@christopherlaboy9377]

Great review, I'm sold that this is the best option short of my LoD tire carrier on my CJ5, this will give me exactly what I need for my Ram.

[@JustDiesels]

I’ve been very happy with mine! I toss it on for trips and then take it off for daily driving.

@@JustDiesels awesome man i've been looking at those myself for my 2012, did you buy the extended control arms? do you have any body roll at highway speed around corners?

I love this thing! It’s like a perfect fit!

[@josep211080]

Nice ride! Used to have a SLT SPORT single cab in the same color.

[@chudrustler]

Rare colour I find

[@JasonWaterfalls13]

Neat piece of kit! Looks cool too.

[@sebastien9514]

Every time I see your truck it reminds me of my dads. He has a 2004 ram 2500 and it looks to be the exact same colour as your and he has after market wheels on his with the Cummins

[@6pR9MK]

Your next purchase and review should be the S&B 52 gallon replacement tank! Been eyeing that for my '07 5.9 QCSB, as they're the only larger tanks available for our sized trucks.

[@JustDiesels]

I have a friend that just got one! I really have no need, but he absolutely loves his.

[@alen-commentnazi8774]

Videos are insane bro!! Been a while but watched a loam wolf review recently and then i was like wait i gotta see how youre doing on this channel too

[@JustDiesels]

Thanks man! Missing the bike industry a little since I left, but I still work with the Loam Wolf crew from time to time!

[@ltanzie3363]

Another great video Andrew! The RigD UltraSwing is on my wish list after my delete and exhaust.

[@jamesmerkel9442]

if they doubled it up so u can Baja swing 1 tire right & other left that gives u more mounting spots as well.

[@adambatchelder4121]

Nice pice, however I've already built my own bumper so I will build off that and keep my clearance high and my tire weight right up close to the tailgate.

[@Zorinlndustries]

How does this work with the factory mounted tailgate camera? Also, is a license plate light included with the plate relocation?

[@bertvanderzon1048]

Great video! Thanks.

[@jamesmerkel9442]

If they offered a buy1 swing right get a chance to buy 1 swings left at workable price your buddy gets 1 too or u r baja 2 tire carrier cool mega deal offer + extra mounting stuff . God approves of this tech for ppl's truck if can get mass production price.

[@user-cl8ng1bn3n]

Anyway to have the ability to utilize rear backup camera with the carrier in place, extending the factory camera to the RIGd bar or something? Just a thought

[@bruta1f3ar]

Great video! I’ve been thinking about the spare tire problem as I consider upgrading from 35” to 37” tires. This gives me more to think about than my original idea of buying a new bumper with a permanent swing out tire rack. I like the idea that you can remove it if needed! Definitely added to my wish list. I love the channel content so far!, any considerations for reviews on drive train components or tuners? I know you run the edge cts 3 monitor but I can’t recall you saying anything about a tuner or anything done to the motor on your 3rd gen.

[@JustDiesels]

I have a Smarty Jr on the truck that I use for tire size correction and a little boost to fuel economy. I haven’t gotten much into the power additions since the truck still has a stock trans though.

[@patboatwright8085]

Man love the content wondering if you have a review of your camping rack how it goes in and out and all that

[@JustDiesels]

I do although I didn’t film the process of installing and removing it. It’s pretty simple though since the rack just pinches the bed rails! Here’s my review: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oH3CqWutjdSXrrc

[@mikestrucks]

Great interesting video as always 👌🏻

[@sherpaec]

A great setup!

[@oahu_mopar]

Great review! 🤙🏼🇺🇸💯

[@ShaneEstabrooks]

I can fit a 35 under my Ram 2500 .. but only if it measures 34.5, my new Toyo tire's measure 34.8 and do not fit

[@TheChicagOP]

Always loved this thing, the only thing that bugs me is how far it sticks out but unless they make one that's a whole bumper as well it's gonna stick out

[@DirtComplex]

We have a higher clearance chromoly version

[@willpizza1]

@@DirtComplex but when is it gonna be able to hold a 37?????

[@jorgoberscheven1334]

Other question...the bed rack...is it the short or long sidebars version of the yakima?

[@lucky-rowe2623]

Good review.. what about getting pulled over by the police for not having a license plate or light for the plate?

[@JustDiesels]

This has a plate relocation mount so that’s no worries. It isn’t lit, but I seriously can’t imagine anyone would get pulled over for that.

[@lucky-rowe2623]

@@JustDiesels OK. Thanks for fast response. I am going to look into this maker for my new 4Runner.

[@glowingturbo]

Very nice... may I ask where you found your tailgate wind deflector? I need one as well.

[@TravisGreeson]

curious as to why you have a matching spare on there, and the (what looks to be) stock spare under the bed? I did this for a little for added weight on my rig but got rid of it! just saving up for my rigd ultra swing! Nice rig! subscribed !

[@JustDiesels]

I kept it since I actually don’t daily drive with the RIGd carrier. I only take it on trips and keep my small spare as a back up for day to day. Thanks for watching and subbing!!

[@jeffreyyeater1780]

Loos like a great option.

[@asherdog9248]

Did you noticing the extra weight on the bumper causing a truck stability issue?

[@hbsteve001]

Just discovered your channel and think it's great. SUBSCRIBED! I too have a low mileage 2007 5.9 (just turned 93k). It's amazing what these trucks are capable of with well-integrated, high-quality mods - but it does take $$$. I do have one question on the carrier: Is the license plate visible with the carrier installed? From the video it appears to be hidden. Thanks!

[@JustDiesels]

Yeah the carrier had a relocation bracket built in you can mount the plate on!

[@exzackt]

I think the trend right now is no spare at all. Jeeps are doing it to save weight and improve departure angle, I guess we always want what we don’t have

[@stinkymcstinkerton1854]

Thanks for the review. I don’t know if I want to go with the Expedition One dual swing bumper or some kind of hitch mounted solution. I’m not too stoked about the Wilco , but this one looks as if it might sway me away from the Expedition One model. On another note, do you know if the Baja designs flush mount rear lights will fit into the 2019+ Ram oem bumpers?

[@JustDiesels]

What swayed me to this was keeping my OEM bumper and having the rack be removable. I really like that all the camping stuff on my truck can come right off. And any flush mount light will if you cut the bumper like I did to mine! Baja Designs also sells a no drill back up light kit with S2 lights for the 19+ Rams if you don’t feel like cutting. That mounts the lights right below the rear bumper.

[@stinkymcstinkerton1854]

@@JustDiesels our truck is white, and I really like the chrome and don’t know if I want a black or painted white bumpers.. My wheels are like yours but polished. This setup looks to be my solution the more I type. Also cheaper than replacing front and rear bumpers lol

You can actually just move the rear camera to the plate frame that’s on the carrier if you want.

I don’t mind paying a premium for USA made by good ole” Americans...but...the very base kit is well over a grand?! Nice product either way.

That’s the tough thing right? Making something in the US just flat costs more. I’m sure they could offer it for a few hundred less if they made it overseas, but I prefer to support US companies!
