Expert Reply:
Yes, the Curt Trailer Hitch, # 13540, will fit your 1999 Ford Explorer with a full size spare provided that the full size spare is a factory spare. I have included a link to the installation details for you to view.
To complete your towing set up, I recommend etrailer Ball Mount Kit, # 989900. For trailer wiring, since your Explorer already has a tow package, if you wanted to convert it to a 4-Way flat, use # 118241. i have included a link to the installation details and a video showing a typical installation for you to view.
