Spare tire carrier

I tried searching, both here and google and haven't found what I'm looking for. Does anyone make a spare tire carrier, swing away, that allows you to keep the stock bumper and tailgate? I've got a shell so I'm not really interested in the tiregate ones that you have to replace the tailgate and I'm not a fan of the one that uses the receiver. Anyone have any suggestions?

 

CBI makes one I believe

 

Yes..I think its called a hitchgate..slips into the factory hitch

 

Here is the link to the CBI one. Good Luck.

You don't want it to attach to the stock tailgate, bumper, or hitch.

But you want a swing away carrier. What are you *hoping* it'll attach to?

 

check out the Tiregate HG. it installs into a 2' reciever and leaves everything stock. www.tiregate.com. not very many options being that the tailgate flips down unless you go custom.

 

I'm thinking something where there'd be one that had like 1/8" plate that would stick out on either side of the tailgate, one side being the hing, the other side the latch. I know my best bet is an off road bumper with a tiregate, like what CBI makes, just wondering what other options are out there. I don't like the idea of the hitch-mounted tiregate because I've got back-up sensors mounted in the bumper and that thing would make them obsolete. I'm ok with it attaching to any of the stock parts, I just want to retain the stock parts.

 

Did you ever figure this out ?

 

Haha, nope. I actually traded the truck a while ago. I ended up keeping the spare under the truck the whole time I owned it though. I'm rocking a Ferd now.
