Question:
I have a new Casita 17foot travel trailer with a 2inch lift with spare tire on the back. Looking for racks that may fit the bill. This one looks good. Anyone using this on the back spare tire on a travel trailer?

Expert Reply:
The Surco Spare Tire Bike Rack # BT300 is not recommended for use on the back of a travel trailer. The movement is far greater on the back of a trailer than on the back of a vehicle so many options like the spare tire racks are not compatible.
My recommendation for your trailer is to use the Curt RV Bumper 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver # E-100 and then the Yakima LongHaul # Y02476 and then use the cable lock like # e98891.
