The trucks that came with carriers have reinforcement/nut plates inside the fender. I don't think the non-carrier trucks generally have the brackets, but I don't know for sure that yours doesn't. Stick your hand up in there and see. It is possible to retrofit a carrier to a non-carrier truck. It has been done. The tricky bit is those reinforcement brackets. I pulled the brackets out of my parts car for @vzcraig70 a couple years ago, and found out why ninetyfivehatch cut his down to fit. They were clearly installed before the quarter panel went on, which is why it takes a little butchery to put them in after the fact. Hawairish used rivnuts to mount the carrier on his R50. Seemed to work alright for him, but after seeing NissanBoston's pictures on the last page of that thread, I don't think I would trust rivnuts alone.1 point
