Recommended Spare Tire Carrier for a 2005 Dutchmen Tab Trailer

Question:

which spare tire mount is recommended for my tear camper see above in subject. There is an LP already mounted on the frame near the towing hitch. Wonder if it can fit above that LP tank or on the side?

The LP tank does make it a little more difficult, but not impossible. I will say that the Ultra-Fab Folding Carrier # UF15-954730 will fit a 4" x 4" tube, so if the part of the A-Frame you want this to attach to matches this size, I do recommend it. The 60 pound capacity and ability to carry 5, 6, and 8 lug wheels, it is very versatile.

That being said, if the frame is 3" x 4" or 3" x 5", I suggest going with the Dutton-Lainson Offset Trailer Spare Tire Carrier # DL22120. The bottom of the brackets may need to be trimmed a little to accommodate for the LP tank, but will still be a good option.
