Rear Spare Carrier Option for Dually Spare that Weighs 80 lbs
Question:
CAMPING WORLD RECOMMENDS A STRONGBERG CARLSON VFX-9330 TO CARRY MY MOTORHOME 16 DUALLY SPARE ABOUT 80 LBS. SEEMS LIKE ALOT TO ASK OF THE BUMPER CONSIDERING THE AMOUNT OF TORCH A BUMPER MOUNTED SPARE MIGHT PUT ON IT. NEED I BE CONCERNED? I WOULD PREFER TO NOT USE MY HITCH RECIEVER TO CARRY A SPARE, BUT I CANT FIND OTHER OPTIONS. ID EVEN CONSIDER A MOUNTING SYSTEM THAT MOUNTED TO THE REAR OUTSIDE WALL OF THE MOTORHOME UNLESS THAT WOULD BE ILLADVISED.

Expert Reply:
For that heavy of a wheel and tire I would recommend a hitch mounted option like the part # RM-195125 as your most ideal solution since hitches are the most sturdy attachment point. But if your rear bumper is welded all the way around and reinforced decently you could use a bumper mounted option as well with the part # BR56VR.
