Brophy Trailer Stake Pocket Spare Tire Carrier - Black Powder Coat

This set up did not work for our trailer. The stake/down section is too long. That means it would not tighten up in the slot.

We attempted to drill and run bolts through to modify it. That did not work either.

While a nice idea, sadly this did not work for us.1309660

Well, this is a very well made product. After reading all the reviews and watching the videos I purchased it to use facing in on my 102" trailer. It didn't fit with my spare due to the tire size. I'm sure I've voided the warranty, but I cut it partially apart and welded some angle iron to it to mount my spare flat on the deck. Long story short, it worked well for me with some modification. Just use caution if you need it to mount inward on your trailer. 670598

Still holding up and working perfectly. Still havent repurposed the poket part yet though, but Im sure I will some day.

The length of the stake is a little long, so it does wobble. I will fix that later. Other than that, it does the job.

Thanks!1326853

Bought my Brophy Trailer Stake Pocket Spare Tire Carrier one year ago to the date and have not had any issues with it. I had concerns about the nuts backing out over time, but we have not had that happen! If you're looking for a trustworthy spare tire carrier, this is the one for you!1313506

Was a bit disappointed with how this item fit into my stake pocket. I either have to modify the length to make it shorter so the bolt will keep the tire holder tight or just weld it in place in the stake pocket. Have not decided which way I am going to go. Probably just weld it in place.1043768

Thank you for your review. This spare tire carrier is designed for standard 2 x 4 trailer stake pockets.

good solution for trailer spare since the front triangle is taken with other devices.1310669

Works like it is supposed to and is a great addition to my trailer.1315047

What I was looking for. However it's a little wobbly in the pocket after mounting. The bottom brace won't tighten down enough. Probably will get a little weld.648036

I'm giving this 3 stars but beware of your trailer construction. This carrier caused enough vibration to break the welds on my stake pocket causing it to fail. The tire carrier broke off on a bridge in Manhattan. Lost the tire and all, lucky didn't kill someone or cost me my life savings from being sued!860958

Nice heavy product. Very easy to install in stake pocket. The only thing of concern is the potential of movement from side to side, and maybe front to back. Would be great if it included some form of wedge style tightening to pocket area.764125

Not so great! Had to modify with welding to make it less wobbly! Very frustrated!

I received the package yesterday evening, I opened the box but have not looked at it closely or installed it on trailer yet. But It arrived earlier then expected which was great. I received the adjustable drop hitch and 2 inch ball On Monday that also was recieved early. It was in very good condition, easy to assemble and Adjust, Heavy product.

I would recommend E-trailer to everyone as they have great customer service and products!604609

This stake pocked spare carrier is very well built, and feels stable in the install. The only issue I'm having is that the bottom plate is forcing the carrier to lean outward somewhat once it's tightened down. I'll have to take a file to the hole on the bottom plate to allow for a bit of adjustment, as an elliptical hole would allow for some variance when you're putting everything together. Also, it would be nice if the fixed bolt on the plate had a pre-drilled hole so you could add a lock.679254

It is built reasonably well. I planned to mount it on the side of my trailer, but it is too long. It puts the tire out quite a bit further than the fender so I can't use it. I went a different route for mounting my spare.636878

Nice option for carrying my spare that I hadn't seen until looking on etrailer.com. Easy to take on and off as needed and seems sturdy enough to last for a long time. Fast shipping too!734019

Great, well built , and easy to install ! Works perfectly!683187

Seems like a nice, sturdy spare tire carrier. It comes with extra lug nuts to mount the spare tire - which is a plus in my book. It appears powder coated so it should provide plenty of years of service without showing any rust or wear.801349

Well built and easy to install. Your trailer needs to be made from heavier iron or with a full size tire it will flex a lot. No complaints. 751593

These inserts did not fit the pockets as tightly as I would have expected but, with some minor modifications, they worked out just fine and fit fine with no wobble or slop in the mounting.984115

Used on my 16 foot trailer. Attaches with a bolt so quick removal for security not an issues. Good heavy quality. Works perfectly for my needs. Quick shipping. 678651

More than pleased with the Brophy mount. It's heavier and more sturdy than I anticipated. Works perfectly. I would absolutely recommend this product to anyone. etrailer is fantastic, definitely delete Iver's as advertised.
