Will the Spare Tire Fit in the Factory Location On the Volvo XC90 After the Hitch is Installed
Question:
will the spare tire still fit under the XC90 once the hitch is installed? The spare tire appears to be missing in your pics.
asked by: Kurt
Expert Reply:
The spare tire will be reinstalled in the factory location after the hitch installation is complete on your Volvo XC90 (see instructions link).
If you'll be towing with the hitch, you'll need a few products to complete your towing system:

Ball mount # C45010
Pin and clip # PC3
2 inch trailer ball # 63845
