Product Overview
A trailer tire failure on the shoulder is bad enough without discovering the spare was left in the garage. This high-mount bracket keeps a wheel on the trailer frame, up and away from the hull, winch post, and road spray where the measured setup allows.
Lug count alone does not guarantee fit. Bolt circle, pilot opening, wheel offset, tire diameter, frame width and height, carrier capacity, and hull clearance all matter.
Measure the trailer frame and spare wheel, compare the slotted plate, U-bolts, offset, and hardware, and verify that the loaded carrier will not interfere with turning, launching, lights, or the boat.
Key Features & Performance
- Slotted wheel plate accepts several lug patterns
- Offset high-mount design preserves nearby clearance
- Bolt-on frame attachment avoids welding where compatible
- Keeps a spare with the trailer for roadside use

- Adding a spare to a boat trailer
- Moving a loose spare off the trailer deck
