ABSTRACT:
The present invention constitutes a carrier for maintaining a spare tire to a vehicle, such as a pickup truck so as to be easily accessible, that comprises a lifting arm assembly which is secured to the vehicle bumper or frame and incorporates a screw arrangement therewith. The screw arrangement is turned manually and operates through a linkage to raise or lower a support bar assembly that mounts a platform whereon the spare tire is maintained. The lifting arm assembly can be pivoted to move the platform and tire between a storage area beneath the vehicle frame and to a point beyond the vehicle bumper whereby the tire and platform can serve also as a step for facilitating entry into the back of the truck or into a camper mounted thereon.
