Recommended Spare Tire Carrier for Aluminum Trailer Frame
Question:
I am looking for a galvanized or stainless steel spare tire carrier that will attach to my aluminum trailer. The I-beam I need to mount to is 4½ inch tall by 3½ inch wide.

Expert Reply:
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 part # FHDSTC0101 and Offset Trailer Spare Tire Carrier by Dutton-Lainson part # DL22120. Please note, the frame is a bit wide for these so you may need to find some longer bolts but other than that they should fit great.
