Today, we're taking a look at the Brophy Trailer Stake Pocket Spare Tire Carrier. This unit allows you to mount your spare tire up and out of the way. The base of the carrier simply inserts into a standard two by four stake pocket on your trailer. Mounting hardware is included, so you place this into the stake pocket on your trailer.Then, you secure it in place by taking the mounting plate, take a bolt through the mounting plate, and then you thread it into the nut that's welded onto the base right here. Then, what you do is you just tighten that up until the mount plate is secure to the bottom of the stake pocket on your trailer. Installation is very quick, very easy, very simple.Then, right here, we have the actual plate where we're going to mount the spare tire and wheel assembly.
This is designed to fit wheels with a five on four and a half inch, five on five inch, six on five and a half inch, and eight on six and a half inch bolt pattern. You would take this bolt right here, place it through this back slot, push on the keeper. That's going to keep that bolt in place.Then, what you do is this has a little bit of room to accommodate different bolt patterns on the wheel. Find configuration that works best for you, place that on. Then, you fit your wheel over these studs and place on the lug nuts until the wheel is secured to the mounting plate right here.
Now, the mounting plate itself, that's a nice large design. Edge to edge, going this direction, it's about six inches. Going this direction, measures about seven and a half inches.It's made from a durable steel construction, features a nice black powder coated finish on it to resist rust and corrosion. Product's made in the USA and, again, this is designed to mount your spare tire up and out of the way. It fits into a standard two by four stake pocket on your trailer.
That's all there is to it. That's going to do it for today's look at the Brophy Trailer Stake Pocket Spare Tire Carrier.

Mount your spare tire up and out of the way with this stake pocket tire carrier. Base of carrier inserts into a standard 2x4 stake pocket on your trailer. Works with 5-, 6-, and 8-lug wheels.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
Super easy setup. The only issue that encountered was that the bottom of the base extended below the stake pocket. This made it so the entire assembly would bounce around in the stake pocket. I added a shim on each side to lock it into the stake pocket. Worked great. 671550
Arrived quickly, good quality product. 616150
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
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
Great, well built , and easy to install ! Works perfectly! 683187
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
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

Easy to install and strong hold Thanks 862571
Works great. Better than expected 862264
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
Easy to install and works as expected 825032
Overall the product has performed. It did require rework and welding additional support to hold it in place tightly. Before doing the alteration, it would not tighten up and was very wobbly. After the change I made its rick solid 817854
Had issue with delivery on my end. Etrailer service took care of issue right away and delivery was made. They were friendly and efficient. Couldn't ask for better service. MIKE 816075
Very easy to install. Initially I was concerned that it would stick out too far but was satisfied after I mounted the tire on it. It sticks out about an inch farther than trailer wheels. Good quality. 801904
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
Great heavy duty tire rack! Prompt service and delivery! Thanks! 785825
easy to order an install 784922
Just what I was looking for to mount a 20lb propane tank. Rapid delivery. 771068
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
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
Great order process and very timely shipping. I was very impressed with the quality of the product. I work in QC with metal fabricated products and this product was well made. These guys should be looked at when you need similar products. 735401
Well built bracket, fits perfect into the stake pocket. Arrived 2 days earlier than expected. 732456
This carrier is as advertised, it is well built, and will do exactly what it is made for. My only concern is that it is loose in the stake pocket so I will have to engineer something to make it more rigid.. If I don't it will wind up cracking or damaging the pocket. 722408
