Seems like I'd read somewhere that those standard 4x4 bumpers have a load capacity of about 150 lb, so you'd probably want to reinforce it if you were going to hook up another spare tire to it. I'm trying to figure out how and where to mount an e-bike rack; same problem as e-bikes weigh 45 lb & up. Actually if we did that, which we wouldn't do until taking our big 2.5 mo trip out west this fall, I could stand up the extra spare in the truck bed. It wouldn't have as much of a footprint that way.
