VT Gate, shown with optional Hi-Lift jack mount
(p/n: HL65000-B)
The VT TireGate line is perfect for camping, crawling, working or everyday use. The VT Series TireGate is mounted vertically behind the truck, over the rear bumper. It opens wide to allow full access to the truck bed and does not change your cargo space. This tough carrier allows you to haul up to a 40" tire (35" tire on small size Tiregates) while maintaining your truck's ground clearance and bed space. The TireGate is mounted directly into the factory tailgate mount positions with no cutting, drilling, or welding required (on most vehicles) *.
