Smittybilt pivot install. Are the steel spacers to be used on a jk install for the center mounting plate that has eight holes ? The gaskets are sized to match the spacers. I noticed in the photos that the mounting plate is flush to the tailgate and not spaced. Do you just use the gasket or both ???
Per the manufacturer, only the gaskets are used. The rubber gaskets go between the tire mount base and the tire carrier on one side and between the tire mount base and tailgate on the other. Thank you for your question.

The kit comes with 4 large spacers and rubber pads. The pads obviously are to protect paint but where do the spacers go? the hinge doesn't seem to close correctly when placed between the tub and carrier but without them I'm afraid I'll damage the paint.
