Our Tire Carrier can store your spare in a flat or angled position. The stainless single action locking mechanism and gas shocks allow the carrier to move easily between the two positions. There is an integrated 3/8-inch hole on one of the carrier’s posts for attaching a lock. The carrier is compatible with virtually any bolt pattern or center bore. The tire carrier is made from steel, and it is finished in a micro-texture black powder coat. The carrier is fully bolt-on.
