Dirtcom trail swing spare tire carrier installed

Installed my Dirtcom trail swing on the runner today. I also have the front runner fold down table, game changer when out on the trail, or just need a nice table to make some lunch etc!

Some states if you are traveling might give u hard time for having the marker plate obstructed. That is fully not visible.

Looking good. And increased ground clearance now if you go off roading. Looks like exhaust tip is now lowest hanging part. A dump exhaust tip would take care of that.

Looks good!

- how was it mounted to the truck?
- looks like it completely blocks the rear window. Do you have the digital rear view mirror?

I need to adjust it over had a smaller tire on it with my last build. from farther back you can see all the digits fine, up close the first is blocked, no worries

it mounts inn the stock hitch location, these are tow rated, so you can still hook up and tow what ever you'd like or use it for recovery
you can see over it, you maybe lose the bottom 20% of your view

So it used a single point mounting to the hitch receiver? Um... Wouldn't that make it rock left and right, as a single mounting point can never be solid.

its got a wedge that tighten in the hitch, its super stout. check out their website for some more details and info on their system.
