Review on 🚐 Universal RV Tire Carrier by Ultra-Fab Products: The Ultimate Solution for Hassle-Free Tire Transport by Ricardo Mercado

Revainrating 1 out of 5

POOR CONSTRUCTION MAKES THING POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS

Bought to replace the original which broke after a few years and what a disappointment. The vertical post on this unit is just a piece of cheap stamped C section with panels welded on at the ends and center to add a bit of integrity. The OLD was solid square tubing and much more durable. The integrity and durability of this carrier is questionable as the tire wobbles violently at the slightest impact. At least the hardware seemed sufficient. With such a load, the device will soon fail, which can result in the tire either dragging along the ground or completely detaching from the trailer. If it falls, it will become a serious hazard to following traffic and you will be liable for any damage. THIS THING IS DANGEROUS, and the expectation of an accident. I returned it and bought a CURT 31006 Hitch tire changer and used the bolt-on Swagman hitch receiver I already had. The CURT block is twice the size but 10 times the size of the busbar.

Pros
  • Powder coated and rust proof for long life.
Cons
  • Empty
