So does anyone make a reciever mounted tire carrier that I can still tow my trailer through? Having issues with what to do with my 38's. They are taking up my entire bed. I try to camp like twice a month and need the space.

Throw your 38" spare in or on your trailer while towing, then transfer it back to the truck after the trailer is disconnected.

Well I guess I should have clarified. The trailer I tow is actually a small camper. So no room.

But thanks! The person above you posted a pretty nice bumper, so I contacted the company. So with that bumper, then the kit to add the tire carrier and all the stuff to make it work was well over 2k.
A bit too pricey for me.

Any possibility you could add a mount or receiver to the small camper that you could use?

I think most options that use a bumper mounted solution will easily clear 2k just to get started.

There’s also a brand that is usually exclusive to Toyota/Lexus but if memory serves me, they made a Jeep bumper too.. can’t remember their name but it came in at 2500+


Edit to add:

Have you looked at a roof rack for the cab? You could put the tire up there when towing.
