Will Cargo Carrier # e98874 Clear Rear Spare of 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited

Question:

Will the etrailer brand 24x60 Cargo carrier flip up when installed on a 2015 Jeep Wrangler? Installation video was awesome... just not sure if there is clearance to lock it in the upright position with the spare tire. thanks...

The clearance that the etrailer cargo carrier part # e98874 has when folded up is not going to be enough to allow you to clear the rear spare most likely. It has a distance of 9-1/2 inches from the pin hole to the nearest edge when folded up which we have found to be a few inches short of what would clear a Wrangler spare tire.

You can measure your hitch pin hole to spare tire dimension and you can verify this if you like too though. It will for sure clear folded down though.
