Raise the spare 3" ?
I'd love to add a spare tire bracket that raises the wheel/tire up 3" (or 2.75" at a minimum).
Anybody know of a bracket that can do this? Most brackets on the quadratec site do not specify how many inches they will raise the spare.
I'm looking for my 35" spare to clear the Yakima bike rack. When the rack tilts down, the tire still hits the fixed up bar. I don't think it will open all the way, but will open much more once the tire clears the rack.
Thanks!

The smittybilt oversized tire carrier will let you put a 35 on, and it replaces the stock carrier. You can adjust it as much as you want. I had a 35 and my 4 bike hitch carrier on no problem. I actually am sellin the smittybilt tire carrier because I just put on a orfab. Thy are like 120 new. Mine is in good shape 90 bucks and its yours. Pm me if interested. Also has the third brake light
