Today we're going to be taking a look at the Ultra-Fab folding bumper-mounted spare tire carrier for trailers and RVs, part number UF15-954730. Our spare tire carrier is going to allow us to have a removable attachment point for our spare tire here on the bumper of our RV. Now by simply removing a pin and clip located here in the rear we're going to be able to fold this down and out of the way, giving us access into the rear of our RV. As you can see, we've got a heavy duty steel construction. Full welds go down the inside to secure everything in place and give us a nice firm connection point. They've also powder coated it to give us premium rust resistance and stand up to the test of time.
Not going to have to worry about it getting overly rusty or anything like that on you. Now the spare tire carrier's going to offer us a lot of applications that it's going to work for. Most of your five, six, and eight-lug wheels are going to go on here just fine whether they're the Kelsey-Hayes style or the Fayette-type. Now keep in mind this is not going to fit a five on five bolt pattern, so that's one exception to that rule. It offers a 60 pound weight capacity so even some of the larger, heavier duty tires are going to have no problem riding on our carrier. Now that we've gone over the features let's take a look at the how to get this installed. As you can see here on the back, we've got a small tab.
We're going to place that right on top of the bumper of the RV wherever we want to mount it. Then we're going to bring in our two u-bolts. We've got our four nuts and four lock washers spaced out here so we can get to them easily. We'll want to bring one of the u-bolts around the backside of our bumper, bring it through the plate and the two hole locations. Then we'll be sliding on a lock washer and a nut.
Once we have those two on there that will free up our hand. Bring our other u-bolt around, slide it through. Now we'll just use our ratchet or wrench, whatever you have handy, and tighten them four bolts down. Then we'll bring out our torque wrench and torque it down to specification. You just want to find that in your instructions there.
It will give you the torque specs on what you need to bring these two. Something that really sets the Ultra-Fab spare tire carrier apart from some of the others are the ability to use it in the fixed position as we've got it now, or we can switch out our bolt here for a pin and turn it into a folding configuration. Now to install our spare tire on our carrier we're going to place one of our lug holes through that top carriage bolt. The carriage bolt, all hardware is provided so you're going to have your lug nut here that will match up to it. Then we'll bring in our black plate. That's going to go over the bottom bolt and then a lug not on there as well. Then we'll just tighten these down. That will complete today's look at the Ultra-Fab folding spare tire carrier, part number UF15-954730. .

Clamp this durable steel, folding spare tire carrier onto your trailer or RV bumper. Fits 4" wide, rear, box-style bumpers. Holds most standard automotive and camper tires.This fits our needs perfectly. Easy to mount on our camp trailer 4" bumper. We could not find a better solution to get our spare tire out from under the trailer if we had a flat. This gives us easy access to check the tire air pressure at all times and no hassle in getting to it on muddy,wet, or bad road conditions.This still leaves room to add a cargo carrier if we want to. I recommend this to anyone who travels and camps. Daniel 656971
Received my spare tire holder. Installed it today!! It looks great and will get the spare tire out of the back of my pickup!! 657670
I recently bought a spare tire carrier for my camper from etrailer and I can say it was a pleasant experience arrived sooner than expected due to Bryan’s shipping up grade. The packaging was well done and it was in perfect shape. Now here is the crazy part it is no longer a spare tire carrier I am a ham radio operator and use my gear while camping in the middle of nowhere. It was just what I needed to make the mount for my 24’ fiberglass antenna tower. I cut it down and welded a pipe to it now my fiberglass pipes fit inside and I can just walk the portable tower up and pin it in place. 126227
I like the fact that this will save me some time mounting the spare on my daughters class c. But people should know that the stand-off that the wheel bolts to does not have enough off set for the inside of a duelly wheel. Fortunate that I have fabrication skils, and will use this in my own mount to move the tire and wheel up over the bumper, and as close to the RV body as I can. 595205
Simple install 546627
Very happy with the products I've received. As good as you can get before going high dollar. The company response is awesome with easy ordering and billing. The only shortfall I've found was a delay in shipping due to back order of one item, with no notification to me. My inquiry into this was met with prompt response and service. Thank you. 431958
I purchased a camper that did not come with a spare tire. I need a tire rack that would fit the bumper on my camper. I found the tire mount on Etrailer.com. I ordered it and recieved it by UPS on the day they said it would be delivered. Great experience with Etrailer. Tim Whittington 286607
Here are some photos of my Ultra-fab Folding Spare Tire Carrier I purchased form E-trailer 50871
Installed quickly and easily using basic hand tools. I followed the directions and torqued the nuts on the u-bolts to 30 lb ft, which ended up bending the corners of the mounting flanges. I'm using this to hold a 205/75R14 spare tire, and I hope that the rest of the mount will hold up with use. First chance I get, I will be pulling this off, hammering the flange corners back flat, and welding on an additional piece of plate to strengthen the flange. 712043
I have a Class A and tow a dolly. My dolly does not have space to attach a spare tire. This spare tire holder mounts perfectly on my rear bumper. It's out of the way, easily accessible and looks good. 230484
Dan t - 10/21/2016Outstanding, delivered on time and price was great. 819827
Arrived on time and in good shape. Fit perfectly, just what I needed. 790577
The product is able to hold the weight of our spare tire but the design puts too much stress on the bumper of our Minnie Winnie. With the extension of on the carrier and spare tire rim, the weight of the tire pulls away from the motorhome and puts stress on the bumper. I strongly discourage this for a Class C motorhome. 786569

I just received my spare tire holder it looks very legit. I have to figure a few things to keep everything from theft. I just don't want to lose what I have worked for. 762820
It is the perfect solution for adding a spare tire to our RV. The spare is out of the way and easy to get to. Much more cost effective than a carrier under the frame of the RV. 749318
