@Doug Only because I saw this mentioned in another thread recently.
As to not derail a vendors thread I found this while browsing the inter webs yesterday. It seems to only be available for 2 doors but a simple call could get the 4dr into production...

That says only up to a 35" tire, too. Not sure what is limiting the size, but...

Forgot to read the description...

My guess is the width of the jeep would not be enough to support anything bigger? But could also be the mounting point of the wheel on the design. If it were another 5" taller it would work theoretically.

My 37 fits back there. Excessive industries makes one, but you pay for it!
I lucked out and mine fits well resting on the cage, then I just ratchet strap it down.

I know my 35" tire fits snuggly in my TJ floor. JKs are wider on the inside so did not think of that. I still prefer to have it laying flat. Just my personal opinion in keeping everything as low to mid section as possible. I do not wheel with a spare unless we will be a good ways from camp.

I knew about the excessive industries one but Doug asked for a roll bar mounted option.
-
Why not making a box that bolts through the floor or something. The box is for storage and then mount the tire to the box. That's has to be a lot cheaper.

Nicely done using just some random picture to show the tire... Just happens to be while crawling at BFE.

Hell no

It seems it would be easy to fabricate one similar to the one posted to accommodate a 40 or 42.
Don your 41 fit in the rear didn't it? @bigprince

Doug - AS may or may not be working on something special for this scenario. :)
