Flatbed 4WC seems to have plenty of rear mounting space. Why bother with an expensive hitch mount?
@steeter2 ,, You might also consider a combination of both (keeping the spare on fulltime),, KP @zerodeclination built an amazing rear tire carrier for @fordoverland @cris.cornette ,, and you could ad just a hitch bike rack when needed, (my recommendation,, 1up USA,, BEEFY!),, Another solution that was pretty amazing, is the 'drop down' spare carrier Tactical Applications Vehicles @tavllc built for a 50Ten camper on a Tacoma for @thewanderlostproject ,, ;-)
Very welcome ;-) ,, if your running a Hawk/Norweld,, check out that setup KP built for @fordoverland,, it might be the best solution,, and maybe able to modify it with a hinge at the bottom to make getting the tire on & off easier,, then you just keep the spare in place,, add or remove the bike rack as needed and 'Bob's your Uncle' ;-)This is awesome info! Greatly appreciated!!
