Review on Curt 31006 24-Inch Trailer Hitch Spare Tire Mount for 2-inch Receivers - Black, Enhancing SEO by Johnathan Hegie

For transporting spare parts in the vintage road trailer. Exactly what I needed. It also looks great. The angle is both practical and beautiful to look at, especially with the vinyl cover on the tire. I had to relocate the stock where it slides into the receiver to reduce wobble. Unlike a trailer hitch, a heavy tire develops some lateral forces while driving and can sway quite a bit. The strut essentially creates a "swing shoulder" that adds weight to the tire when lateral energy is applied. I just cut out some old hotel key cards and glued them on three sides to fill the space, wrapped the edges with black vinyl tape and it was about as strong as it gets. With almost 5000 km of towing, nothing dangles.
