Regarding the TireGate.com swing away spare tire carrier, do you know if the tow rating decreases? It looks to be a great design, but we frequently tow heavy.

Off the TireGate website,
"This product meets the requirements for a SAE Class IV coupling classification. Max. vertical tongue weight of this product is 750 lbs. Maximum towing weight attached to this product is 7500 lbs."
Our money pit: 2008 Dodge Power Wagon, G56 manual, rebuilt front end (Carli upper/lower ball joints, track bar, CroMo control arms, Spicer triple lip seal u-joints in front axle, PSC steering gearbox brace). Many more mods to come but they will be slow.
This is our do-it-all-vehicle. Tows, hauls, works, d-driver (I keep it parked as much as possible) & plays & takes us out to dinner as well.
