I’ve had this tire carrier mounted on my 2014 4Runner for over a year without any issue. I used this carrier to hold my 295/70/17 spare and took it through numerous trips that required hundreds of miles of unpaved forest trails and never once has the wedge lock gotten loose. I originally purchased the carrier brand new and had it powdered coated with a textured black at Ken’s Powder Coating in Tacoma.
Tire carrier itself weighs roughly 37lbs. The RidgeRunner Swing-Away Carrier sells for $625.00 before shipping. Then add an additional $250 I paid for powder coating.
Selling this because I have now have a steel swing-out bumper.
Feel free to ask me any questions.
$500 no trades, no shipping. Local pick-up in Seattle.
