    Default 4runner Tire carrier and roof rack

    Just put my rear tire carrier and roof rack on CL for anyone interested. Prices are obo.

    The tire carrier is a Hitch gate clone that I made up, it fits into a 2" receiver hitch and swings out towards the driver side. The ladder in contoured to follow the rear door of a 96 - 01 it might also fit a 2nd gen 4runner as well

    The roof rack has 2 pro comp 55w light and two 100w lights also has a Yakima bike holder on the passenger side.

    I actually really like this idea, how much rattle do you get from using just the hitch for a mount? I am intrested, but shipping is scary to AZ.
    If God is your co-pilot, switch seats!

    There is a bolt that when you tighten it locks it in solid and there is a secondary bolt the also holds it in. The only rattle is from the pivot point on the swing arm that needs a shot of grease ever now and then.

    Here is an action shot from the 4th of July weekend
