    Anyone out there have the rigd tire carrier and care to measure the distance from the tailgate to the spare when mounted? Trying to get an idea to how far it sits off the back tailgate

    Not sure what the exact measurement is but the distance is about the width of a 3 gallon rotopax container. I had since switched it out to a 2 gallon because the 3 gal was touching my tailgate handle.
