I have attached some pictures of the hitch mounted spare tire carrier. It holds my 33' BF Goodrich off-road tire just fine. (1971 Bronco Sport) There is also clearance for the lift gate in the back.30178

The trailer hitch mounted tire carrier is well made, was as advertized, was delivered in a timely manner. The tire carrier will be used with a front mount trailer hitch receiver to hold the spare tire. The truck camper on my truck doesn't allow access to the spare tire in the standard location under the bed. This is a tidy solution to the problem.72663

Excellent delivery time. Great product. Easy to install. Only drawback is there are no bolts shipped with this product to attach the spare tire. We bought several different things to try to mount this tire carrier. Finally bought the correct ones after 3 trips to Lowe's. Very satisfied!67824

Ask the Experts about this Curt Trailer Cargo Control
Do you have a question about this Trailer Cargo Control?

• What is the Height of the Curt Trailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier I have 20 inch wheels
  
• At this time we do not have a picture of the Spare tire rack, part # c31006, in use, but I can tell you the height of the unit is 24 inches from the bottom of the receiver shank to the top of the carrier. From these measurements I believe the spare carrier will work for you. Along with the spare tire carrier you may want to consider the No-Rattle Trailer Hitch Wedge for 1-1/4" and 2" Trailer Hitches, item # 93347. These items will help keep the movement and noise of the the spare tire carrier

• What is the Weight Handling Capacity of the Curt Trailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier
  
• The Curt Trailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier, item # c31006, does not have a weight capacity rating for the carrier itself. The carrier will be able to handle a wheel and tire combination as long as the weight of the wheel, tire, and carrier are within the tongue weight rating of the receiver hitch it is mounted in. If your hitch, front or rear, is rated for 350 pounds then that would be the maximum amount you could carry. You will have to supply 3 bolts and nuts (not included) to secure

• Compatability of Full Size Wheel and Tire Mounting On the Curt Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier
  
• I did some calculations and came up with a 6.78 inch tall sidewall on your tire that combined with the 9 inch Radius of your wheel would give you 15.78 inches above and below the center of the wheel mount location on the Curt Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier, item # c31006. I went out to the warehouse and measured on the angle from the center of the tire mount and the distance back down to the support bar at 15.78 inches is 8 inches. This is why the angle is built into the item, so that the w

• Will Curt Spare Tire Carrier Hold a 19.5 inch Spare on a Ford F-450 With Front Mount Hitch
  
• We have two front mount receivers available for a 2004 F-450 cab and chassis. They are Draw-Tite part # 65022 and Curt part # 31114. I have added links to these parts and their install instructions below. I did some geometry with your 8 on 9 inch lug pattern and the bolt holes should line up so that you can at least 2 bolts of the wheel attached to the carrier. Whether or not you will clear the grille or bumper of the truck will take some measurements once a front hitch is installed, but it l

• Will The Curt Trailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier Fit 2003 Ford E450 With 255/75R16 Tire
  
• I walked out to the warehouse and took some measurements on the Curt Trailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier, part # C31006. I calculated the overall diameter of your wheel and tire to be 31 inches. I measured on center from 15-1/2 inches up following the angle of the wheel mount. Then, I measured out 6-1/2 inches from the top of the vertical measurement toward the rear of the vehicle, and then straight down, which was 2 inches from the rearmost hitch pin hole on part the spare tire carrier.

• Availability of a Trailer Hitch Mount Towing Spare Tire Carrier or Dual Purpose Ball Mount
  
• None of the trailer hitch mounted spare tire carriers, like # C31006, are what is considered to be a towing carrier. However, what you could do is use a dual purpose ball mount like # D210. With this ball mount you would place the hitch mounted carrier in the receiver portion and tow with the ball mount portion. You will have to make sure that you do not exceed the tongue weight capacity of the hitch when using the ball mount and receiver portion at the same time. You will have to subtract the w

• Bike and Spare Tire Carrier Recommendation for a 2002 Damon Daybreak RV
  
• There might be a way to put a bike rack and a spare tire on the back of your 2002 Damon Daybreak RV, but the Curt Trailer Cargo Control, part # C31006, is not designed or rated to have the additional weight of a bike rack and bicycles on it, so it would not be a good option to go that route. I would recommend you use the # C31006 to carry the spare tire and then use a Topline 2 Bike Carrier RV Ladder Mounted Bike Rack for Elliptical or Flat Steps, part # BR1200, if you have elliptical or flat

• Will Curt Spare Tire Carrier Hold a 19.5 inch Spare for a Class A Monaco Monarch Motor Home
  
• There is not a set weight limit for this Curt Trailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier, part # C31006. As long as the hitch that is on your Class A Monaco Monarch Motor Home has tongue weight capacities that are above the weight of the carrier and wheel that it would be carrying you would be fine in that regard. As long as you can get two bolts through the mounting plate of this # C31006 you would be able to secure your spare to the carrier. This carrier can accept a wide variety of bolt patt

• The Curt Trailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier, # c31006, is a universal fit item designed to fit as many size tire/wheels as possible. In order to determine if your 26 inch wheel will fit, I have taken some measurements and made some pictures for you to view.

• Bolts Needed for Mounting a Spare Wheel and Tire to the CURT Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier
  
• You would need to find grade 5 or harder bolts, nuts and washers that match the wheel stud diameter of your wheels to mount a spare wheel and tire to the CURT Trailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier, # c31006. It would also help to use a nut that matches the lug nuts for your wheel so you do not need an additional wrench to remove the spare from the carrier. Most trailer wheels use a 1/2 inch diameter wheel stud, so 1/2 inch hardware would work well, check to be sure of the wheel stud size f
