MY RUSTIC Stake Pocket Spare Tire Carrier — Black Powder-Coated Steel, Fits 4–8 Lug Wheels with Triple-Nut Lock

MY RUSTIC Stake Pocket Spare Tire Carrier is a heavy-duty, powder-coated steel mount that secures a spare wheel in a trailer stake pocket with a triple-nut locking design for extra stability.

This stake pocket spare tire carrier provides a compact, low-profile way to store a spare wheel on utility trailers and tongue frames. Engineered to fit a wide range of bolt patterns and stake pocket dimensions, it combines a reinforced bracket, double-screw fixation and a patent-pending 3-nut locking system to reduce vibration and keep the tire firmly attached during transport. The durable powder-coat finish helps resist rust and the carrier accepts most common 4-, 5-, 6- and 8-lug wheel patterns.

What stake pocket sizes and wheel bolt patterns will this mount fit?

The carrier is designed for trailers with stake pockets up to 4" wide and 2.5"–4" high. It supports an array of bolt patterns so a single mount works with many common wheels.

• Fits stake pockets: up to 4" width, 2.5"–4" height
• Compatible bolt patterns: 4-, 5-, 6- and 8-lug configurations
• Specific diameters: 4.0", 4.25", 4.5", 4.75", 5.0", 5.5", 6.0", 6.5" patterns supported
• Accepts most trailer tongue and frame mounting positions

How secure is the spare when the trailer is on the road?

Security is the carrier’s primary focus: it uses a reinforced bracket with dual-screw fixation and a patented three-nut locking assembly to reduce loosening and road vibration. Those features prevent rattling and lower the chance of loss while towing.

• Double-screw mounting reduces shake and sway
• Patented 3-nut design locks the wheel tighter than standard mounts
• Rated to hold up to 160 lbs for typical trailer spares
• Powder-coat finish protects against rust and corrosion

How difficult is installation and what hardware is included?

Installation is straightforward and intended for DIYers; the kit includes all necessary mounting hardware and a step-by-step guide. The carriage bolt and bracket use a spring-sheet lock to position parts, then the cone nuts secure the tire—two nuts per mount add redundancy.

• All mounting bolts, nuts and washers included in box
• Simple spring-sheet method to set carriage screw and bracket
• Cone nuts and double-nut technique make final fastening quick
• No special tools required beyond common wrenches

Will this resist weather and long-term wear?

The carrier’s powder coat finish and steel construction are selected to withstand road exposure and resist surface corrosion. Proper installation and periodic checks of the fasteners will extend service life even under frequent towing conditions.

• Durable powder-coated steel resists rust and chipping
• Robust welds and thick bracket steel for structural longevity
• Designed to reduce vibration-related wear on fasteners
• Regular inspection of fasteners recommended for long-term use
