Just what I needed to mount the spare on my Class C with the Ford E450 chassis.

You guys are real problem solvers. I had my spare tire mounted on my lid closing the well which contains a great storage area for jacks and other tools and is lockable. However raising the lid with the spare on it became problematic for weight reasons and the spare would hit against the window and wouldn't open far enough to gain access. Wallah, the Curt Trailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire carrier solved all those problems inexpensively and contributed to a overall better look for the spare. Thanks to everyone involved with the production and sales of this as it sure made my live easier.

This was exactly what we needed. It is very well-made and it sits nicely into the hitch with absolutely no wobble. The only reason I gave it four stars was because of the difficulty in aligning the bolts to attach the spare tire. They are free floating so they can be setup for a variety of tires. But this makes it very difficult to align the bolts and try to tighten at the same time. I solved this by making a paper template of the holes from my spare tire. Then I bought 3 jam nuts and 3 washers to secure the bolts into position before lifting the tire in place. Now that the bolts are secured in the right alignment it will be easy to remove and replace the tire in the future. It would be a very simple thing to add these instructions and supplies to the kit.

Well built, hard to lift 200LB tire and get the carriage bolts to align. The M12 retaining ring would not hold the bolts. Used a ATV jack to make slight lift and wiggle bolts into location. I'm 62 work smarter not harder.
