Tire shovel mount?
Looking for a solution to mount the shovel on the spare tire. Currently it's bungied under the backseat, but some days I need the space with the back seats down. A tad too long to mount on the tailgate. I know some people have it bungied to the spare, but looking for more of a secure (safety/security) mount. I remember seeing someone have a clamping bracket of some sort, don't know where the thread went.

Quickfists maybe?

I now use my tire mount bike rack to carry shovels. Now that I have a 2" receiver hitch and a new bike rack, the older Allen rack is used only for hauling two shovels (and a hi-lift jack if need be). Installs in about 30 seconds, and you can remove the rack with shovels still strapped on. The straps on the rack are more than enough to secure shovels.

I'd use bungies, I'm just paranoid it's gonna fall off on the freeway or washboard roads. Quickfist would require making a panel/bracket of some sort. Not sure how that one on ebay would mount to the spare tire carrier?

Depending on your rear bumper if you have a swing out tire carrier ?
i used a piece of ready-rod couple of washers , Nyloc Nuts and A wing Nut for quick removal along with 1 Mag Light holder and mounted mine inline with the carrier for easy access - Works Great :thumbsup: Attachment 146453 |
