Product Description
CURT front mount accessories are a unique line of towing accessories that maximize the usefulness of your tow vehicle and give you that added edge on and especially off the road. A CURT front mount trailer hitch is the first step in making your vehicle the ultimate towing machine, and with it comes a variety of towing possibilities you might not even know exist. The CURT spare tire mount inserts into the 2" x 2" receiver tube opening of your trailer hitch and allows you to attach a spare tire onto the front end or rear of your truck, van or SUV. It measures 24" from top to bottom and features multiple mounting holes on the shank to provide plenty of clearance for your bumper and the rear of your vehicle. The CURT spare tire mount is designed to mount onto a variety of vehicles and to accept a number of different wheel types. It is especially useful for off-roading situations and for creating a little extra cargo room inside your vehicle (NOTE: Mounting hardware for the spare tire is not included).

And for the price you can’t beat it.
I’m replacing it with a flip down version, but that is $600+. For $120ish, this is an amazing solution.

For the price, this was a near perfect solution to the problem. The mount is solid and sturdy, and I had every confidence it could survive thousands of road miles (it did, when I drove from Alaska to Montana and back). There is just one flaw, and one caution, purchasers should recognize.
The flaw with this, is that it doesn’t include lug bolts. So receiving it doesn’t mean it’s ready to go. I had to go to Lowe’s an purchase some carriage bolts and nuts to mount the tire onto the assembly. This presented a small problem as I had to hold a tire in place, slide a bolt through, AND put a nut on that bolt all at the same time. While I was able to eventually get it done, it is not an easy one-man job, and I was working in a warm, well lit garage, not a dark side of the road while fighting with it. Including factory lugs would be a great boost, perhaps with some sort of easy tire mounting solution so a single person can operate this. As it is, I would not count on my wife being able to do anything with this.
The other caution is to consider the mount doesn’t fold. When installed on a hitch, this sits in front of my lift gate, so I cannot access the rear of the car. I planned ahead for this, but some of the tools you need to say, unmount the tire from the assembly might not be accessible in their default storage spot in your car. Planning ahead is necessary in this case, and can be a pain of finding new storage spots in a full car for those emergency tools
Overall, a solid item, worth the price I paid, and I’m happy with it. That said, think ahead and if you want this mounted full time or are relying on ease of use, probably look for a more expensive and well-refined model.
I read several posts about the powder coat flaking off. Not so on mine. Perfect coating, and without the tire, it can’t even be seen from the windshield.
Last night while driving home, in the rain, I was in a 3 car pile up. My truck was in the middle. A lady hit my back end, very hard, and really messed up the front of her car. I have a solid steel bumper, and literally had no damage to the rear. As I have already discussed, my front end is mostly all plastic, and when she hit me I was at a dead stop. I got knocked into the truck in front of me. I figured the front of my truck was destroyed..........but it wasn’t. Nothing. No damage at all. You could see where my Curt spare tire bracket had creased the steel bumper of the truck in front of me, but no damage to my spare tire carrier at all. Even the powder coat was perfect. I drove away from an accident that should have totaled my truck because I bought a Curt Spare Tire Carrier and put it on my truck. Best investment I’ve ever made. I’m gonna buy another one and put it in the back. Highly recommend. Best product ever.

So, if your Ford truck comes with this poorly-conceived integrated hood-grill assembly, do not buy this item if you intend to use it as a front mount. I really wish the manufacturer (Curt) would publish a compatibility notice about this, give how common late-model Ford f150s are out there; so that's why the 3 stars from me (I had to return it as a cost). Otherwise, 5 stars for well-made product. Probably would work great as a rear-mount, or even as a front mount on a truck without the integrated hood-grill.

Does not come with installation hardware, so expect to source your own nuts/bolts/washers. Wish the price was just a little cheaper, but I’m happy with this purchase.
