It sounds like you're looking for a hitch for your 2019 GMC Canyon that can still support the spare tire. If you meant something else, just let me know.

For the hitch, I recommend the etrailer hitch, part # e98909. This Class III hitch has a 2" receiver with a gross trailer weight capacity of 8000 pounds and a gross tongue weight of 800 pounds. I've linked to a video installation of this hitch on a 2020 Chevrolet Colorado. The installation is the same for a 2019 Canyon.

You'll see in the video and in the installation instructions below that the spare tire is only temporarily removed for the install and then fits back in its place after everything is completed.
