Hey Debra, The great thing about the Draw-Tite hitch spare tire carrier #6715 is that it is universal! Meaning it will fit any bolt pattern and tire size. I have had people use this with that same bolt pattern with no issues. The one thing to keep in…
I do have some options for you but most of our marine spare tire carriers are zinc plated, not galvanized or stainless. That said, there should not really be any issues with this and the aluminum. I recommend the Fulton Hi-Mount Spare Tire Carrier…
Hello Mark, Based on what you described with the driveway angle and the additional weight you plan to carry on the hitch, I would recommend going with the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs - Rear Axle #SSR-130-54. The main difference between the…
Hey George. The Power Mountain Tallboy Off-Road Bottle Jack item #PM34FR is only rated for 6-tons but it's not like you're raising up the entire motorhome. Most of the weight is going to be on the back though and since it is a dually, I…
Hey, Brian! That's a great question. You can totally use the Redline 1-1/2" Long Torx Trailer Floor and Wall Liner Screw part #TFX150ACQ with your aluminum side rails. This screw is not self-drilling, so we recommend drilling a 7/32"…
Hey Stephen, we have the Kenda Karrier KR53 ST175/80R13 tire and wheel part #KE35EV that would work great as a spare for your 2026 Aluma MC-10 motorcycle trailer. It's same tire size, load range, wheel bolt pattern as what you have and it's…
Hey Jesus! The #e98ZR comes with an alignment collar and a hitch pin. The Curt #C31006 does not include these and costs a little more. Outside of that, they are the exact same spare mount with different branding. What rig are you setting this up on?
The only spare tire carrier I can suggest for you is the Demco Spare Tire Carrier #DM15851-52. While this carrier is designed to fit frames up to 4" tall, you can source longer bolts to be able to attach it to your 8" tall frame. The Fulton…
Hello Travis, thanks for reaching out. We do have a grease seal that is very close to the dimensions you listed, although we don't have an exact match. Take a look at the following: - Grease Seal 29031 #29031 This is 3" OD, 1.875" ID…
The difference between an load range C and load range D tire in the same size is the capacity and psi rating. The two tires will still have the same dimensions and fit on the same wheel. The D rated tire has a higher capacity. For a ST175/80D13 like…
Hey Bart! The Tie Down Side-Mount Spare Tire Mount #TD68FR can be used with a 3" tall trailer tongue. It actually comes with two different U-bolts so it will work with a 4" or a shorter 3" like yours. What kind of trailer do you have?
Depending on how thick the boards are that you plan to install in your trailer the 1-1/2" Long Torx Floor Screws #TF01150 could work well. The screws are 1-1/2 inches long and are 1/4 inch in diameter. If the depth of where the screws can attach…
Explore robust spare tire mounts for RVs that ensure your spare is secure and accessible. These mounts are designed to withstand the rigors of travel, though installation may require some adjustments for optimal fit and function.
Installation is generally straightforward, but instructions can be unclear. Some find it necessary to purchase additional hardware for a secure fit. It's a good idea to have a few extra bolts and washers on hand just in case.
Some mounts may lower the tow hitch by a couple of inches, which can affect the towing height. This might cause the tow point to drag on uneven surfaces. Consider a design that maintains or raises the tow point if this is a concern.
Yes, a rear-mounted spare tire can interfere with bike racks or cargo carriers. It's important to check the clearance and consider extensions if needed to ensure all accessories fit without obstruction.
Common modifications include adding extra bolts and washers for stability and using extensions to clear rear doors or other accessories. Some also paint mounting bolts for a cleaner look and add rubber backing to prevent scratches.
Suggestions include offering mounts that raise the tow point instead of lowering it, providing clearer installation instructions, and including nut caps or rubber backing to protect the spare wheel from scratches.
