Spare Tire Carrier Recommendation for a 2 inch Wide Trailer Frame
Question:
My 4 x 8 trailer has a 2 x 2 frame. Will the FSTC1000301 high mount spare tire carrier fit on this frame. My tire is 13 and I purchased it from eTrailer a short while back. Thank you for your help.

Expert Reply:
Yes, the Fulton Hi-Mount Spare Tire Carrier, # FSTC1000301, will fit on your 2 inch x 2 inch trailer frame. This carrier comes with two sets of mounting bolts and you will want to use the shorter, 3 inch bolts, for your trailer. I went out to our warehouse and confirmed the smaller bolts will work for you.
You will have a small gap, a little over 1 inch, between the bottom of the frame and the lower bolts, so you may want to find a spacer to use between the frame and bolts to prevent any possible movement while driving.
