It clamps to tongues up to 6 inches tall and handles 4-lug and 5-lug wheels across three common bolt patterns. Powder-coated steel with zinc-plated hardware. A simple, honest fix for boat and utility trailers that shipped without a spare mount.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you've ever had a trailer tire go flat on the side of the highway with a boat behind you, you already know why a tongue-mounted spare matters. The Camco Eazlift spare tire carrier gives your spare a permanent home right up front on the trailer tongue, so it's there when you need it and out of the way when you don't. It's built from powder-coated steel with zinc-plated hardware, and it mounts with no drilling into your frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is one of those parts nobody thinks about until they're stuck. Most boat and utility trailers roll off the lot without any spare mount at all. So the spare ends up rattling around in the truck bed, or worse, sitting at home in the garage while you're two hours from the ramp. Bolt this carrier to the tongue and the problem's solved for good. You've got a fresh tire riding with the trailer every trip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFitment is the first thing to check, and it's straightforward here. The carrier clamps to trailer tongues up to 6 inches tall. On the wheel side, it's drilled for three of the most common trailer bolt patterns: 4-lug on a 4-inch diameter, 5-lug on a 4-1\/2-inch diameter, and 5-lug on a 4-3\/4-inch diameter. That covers the vast majority of single-axle and tandem boat trailers out there running 12, 13, and 14-inch wheels. Measure your existing hub before you order. If your spare matches one of those three patterns, you're good to go.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot sure which pattern you've got? Pull one wheel and count the lugs, then measure across the bolt circle. On a 4-lug wheel you measure straight across from center to center of two opposite bolts. On a 5-lug you measure from the center of one bolt to the outer edge of the bolt two positions over. Match that number to the three patterns this carrier supports and you'll know in a minute whether it's the right fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe no-drill mount is the part people appreciate most. You're not putting new holes in your trailer frame, which means no bare metal to rust and no guesswork lining up a drill. The carrier clamps around the tongue and the spare bolts to the face plate with the included zinc-plated hardware. Common hand tools get the whole thing on in well under an hour. One tip from the field: check your tongue for weld beads near where the clamp seats. A proud weld can keep the bracket from pulling down flush, and a few minutes with a grinder or a thin shim fixes it clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe powder-coated steel finish holds up well to freshwater and everyday trailer duty. If you launch in saltwater, be honest with yourself about the zinc-plated hardware. Zinc does fine in fresh water but it'll surface-rust in a salty environment faster than you'd like. A lot of coastal guys swap the supplied bolts for stainless right at install and never think about it again. It's a cheap upgrade that pays off. Give the whole carrier a freshwater rinse when you rinse the trailer and it'll last.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA word on spare size. This carrier pairs best with the 13 and 14-inch donut and full-size spares most boat trailers run. Oversized 15-inch tires can crowd the fender or the tongue jack on a narrow setup, so eyeball your clearance before you commit to a mounting spot. On tapered aluminum tongues, a thin shim under the clamp keeps everything from rocking. And if you're running a tandem-axle trailer with brake wiring along the tongue, route the carrier so it doesn't pinch the harness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCamco's Eazlift line has been making trailer towing gear for years, and this carrier fits right in with that no-drama reputation. It's the kind of part you install once and forget about, which is exactly what you want from a spare mount. It's a no-nonsense piece of gear. Nothing fancy, just a solid steel bracket that keeps your spare where you can get to it. For the price of one roadside tire change, you've got peace of mind on every haul to the water. We keep these in stock and ship same day on orders in before 3 PM ET.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo-drill tongue clamp mount installs with common hand tools in under an hour, no new holes in your frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits trailer tongues up to 6 inches tall for most single-axle and tandem boat and utility trailers\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDrilled for three common bolt patterns: 4-lug on 4 in, 5-lug on 4-1\/2 in, and 5-lug on 4-3\/4 in diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePowder-coated steel construction stands up to freshwater and everyday trailer duty\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc-plated mounting hardware included, easy to upgrade to stainless for saltwater launches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish keeps the carrier low-key on any trailer tongue\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eKeeps your spare tire riding with the trailer and out of the truck bed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePairs well with 13 and 14-inch trailer spare tires\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Camco reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eWhat size trailer tongue does this carrier fit?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eIt clamps onto trailer tongues up to 6 inches tall.
