Standard 3-1/2 By 1-1/2 Stake Pocket Tie Down Anchors For Flat Bed Car Hauler Trailer

Question:

Just picked up a 2021 Carson Trailer flat bed car hauler and need stale drings. Inside pocket measurements are 3 1/2” x 1 3/8” , depth is 3 1/2”. Will they fit. Also, do you carry a spare tire carrier for the stake that’s lockable?

The Stake Pocket Tie-Down Anchor # T355 measure 3-1/2" by 1-1/2". If you measure again (sand down if necessary), you probably actually have the standard 3-1/2" by 1-1/2" opening and not 3-1/2" by 1-3/8", in which case this would work well for you.

For a spare tire carrier that would fit the standard 3-1/2" by 1-1/2" stake pockets we have the Buyers Products Stake Pocket Spare Tire Carrier # 3375201012 or the Brophy Trailer Stake Pocket Spare Tire Carrier - Black Powder Coat # SPTC. Both of these carriers fit wheels with the following bolt patterns: 5 on 4-1/2, 5 on 5, 6 on 5-1/2, and 8 on 6-1/2. While we do not have locking spare tire carriers, you could add etrailer Spare Tire Lock for 1/4" to 7/8" Thick Rims # e98892 which fits 1/4" - 7/8" thick wheels and locks the wheel to the carrier. I attached demonstration videos for you.
