This is mine........
I made one myself out of some some 2" and 1" stock, and some scraps my dad had lying around his shop. Also bought some hinges, here's my write up. I built mine off my rear hitch, and it can be removed easily by unbolting 4 bolts. I'm completely green when it comes to tech stuff, but decided to just try it.....with some pointers from a couple of friends.....
Newbie attempt at a 3rd gen rear tire carrier - YotaTech Forums
P.S: I built mine for under $100.00.
