Kubota RTV/X Series/Sidekick Extended Spare Tire Mount for Deep Offset Wheels & Heavy Tires (2" Receiver) by Hornet Outdoors

Carrying a spare tire on your UTV shouldn't mean sacrificing valuable bed space or struggling with oversized, high-offset aftermarket wheel setups. The Hornet Outdoors™ U-4048 Extended Spare Tire Mount is heavy-duty engineered to handle the larger, heavier tires and deep-offset wheels found on modern side-by-sides while keeping your cargo bed completely open for gear, coolers, and tools.

Designed with a high-clearance angled lower stem, the U-4048 extends the mount beyond your rear bumper, preserving departure angles on rough trails. Its signature 2-piece modular construction features a heavy-duty upper post attached with a standard 5/8" hitch pin. This allows you to pull a single pin and remove the top section—with your wheel and tire still mounted—in seconds. Whether you're heading out for a light work day on the property or need full access to your tailgate, removing your spare is effortless.

Proudly manufactured in the USA using heavy-gauge American steel and finished with a durable flat black powder coat, the U-4048 is built to withstand extreme off-road abuse, heavy payloads, and trail vibration.

KEY FEATURES & DESIGN:

• HEAVY-DUTY FOR MODERN UTV TIRES: Built with high-strength American steel to securely hold the heavier, larger wheels and aggressive tires
