If it's going to bother you please do not order).XJ-Tight fit and clearance through the narrow XJ gaps in the body panels. You may have to grind down the tire carrier at the edges if you find any part rubbing against the body. Once installed and verified all the edges all clear, it works as designed. ZJ - 1993 to 1998 models. The upper mounting holes on top of hatch need to be drilled out to 9/16th.
