TrailSwing® fits your 2019-2027 Jeep Gladiator!
If you’ve upgraded to bigger tires and can’t find a place to put your full size spare, then your search ends here! This is a great alternative to a heavy and intrusive full metal rear bumper replacement.
The V3 Tire Swing‑Out Carrier is built for people who expect their gear to work as hard as they do. Every inch of this system is engineered for strength, stability, and seamless integration, delivering a swing‑out that feels less like an accessory and more like a structural extension of your vehicle. With a certified Class 4 tow rating of 10,000 lbs, tested to SAE J684 standards, this carrier isn’t just capable—it’s proven.
What sets the V3 apart is how effortlessly it works in real conditions. The auto‑latching hinge locator is one of the most noticeable upgrades: instead of wrestling with loose pins or awkward alignment, the arm locks itself into position as you open it, settling into one of three stainless‑steel indexed stops. For SUV's with drop‑down tailgates like Jeep Gladiator, the two‑hole configuration ensures the arm clears the gate without compromise. It’s a system designed to keep your hands free and your workflow smooth, whether you’re loading gear, accessing the bed, or setting up camp.
The swing arm itself is a mounting ecosystem. Expanded V3 mounting plates give you the freedom to bolt on RotopaX, a license plate, a Front Runner table, or your own accessories using hardware up to half an inch. Everything is laser‑cut, reinforced, and ready for whatever configuration your build demands.
A 1,000‑lb rated latch keeps the arm locked down tight, backed by a stainless‑steel safety pin that eliminates rattle and secures the carrier even if the latch is accidentally opened. The billet anti‑wobble hitch system removes the slop you normally feel in a receiver-mounted accessory, giving the entire carrier a solid, planted feel on the road and on the trail.
Mounting your spare is just as refined. The V3 includes a complete wheel‑mounting system with welded studs, lug nuts, and a height‑adjustable 1/4" steel plate capable of supporting tires up to 35 inches. The tire sits at a slight tilt, shifting the center of gravity over the hitch for better stability and a cleaner look. An integrated license plate mount and included plate light keep everything compliant and tidy.
Every optional accessory was designed alongside the carrier itself, so nothing feels like an afterthought. The Trail Bracket lets you mount RotopaX behind or beside the tire—two at once if you want. The bolt‑on accessory hitch gives you a secondary receiver for bike racks or hitch‑mounted gear, secured with four M12 bolts and its own anti‑rattle system. Even the fold‑down table integrates cleanly, allowing all three accessories to be used simultaneously without interference. It’s a modular system that expands with your needs instead of boxing you into a single layout.
Underneath the clean design is serious engineering. The carrier is built from 1.5" .120‑wall chromoly tubing—stronger and lighter than standard steel—and reinforced with 3/16" plating. Structural A572 Grade 50 steel is used throughout, offering nearly twice the strength of typical hot‑rolled plate. EPDM rubber pads and stoppers are strategically placed to absorb vibration, support the tire load, and keep the carrier quiet even on rough terrain. The tow‑rated 2" receiver and billet hitch assembly surpass Class 4 requirements, giving you true towing capability without sacrificing the functionality of the swing‑out.
The result is a tire carrier that feels premium the moment you use it. Solid. Precise. Purpose‑built. It’s engineered for people who tow heavy, travel far, and rely on their equipment in places where failure isn’t an option. If you want a swing‑out that elevates your entire build—not just adds to it—the V3 is the one built to do it.
At 70 lbs. this high clearance tire carrier was designed to offer you the best in functionality without compromising aesthetics.
