Overview: Just like motorcyclists “dress for the crash, not the ride,” off-roaders know the importance of being prepared. A full-sized, easily accessible spare tire is critical when you’re your cutting your own trail or just off the beaten path. For Transit vans, which sit lower to the ground than Sprinters, accessing the under-mounted spare can be nearly impossible in difficult terrain. Our Ladder + Tire Carrier solves that problem and offers the perfect solution for being trail ready.
Two Products in One: Ladder + Tire Carrier
We understand that quality gear isn't cheap, so we aim to maximize functionality. Our Ladder + Tire Carrier combines easy roof access with the security of a spare tire mount—all in one compact, durable package. After all, we pioneered this design, making us the experts in engineering the most reliable solution on the market.
Lightweight & Strong
The new Owl Ladder is stronger and lighter than anything else available. Built entirely from lightweight U.S.-sourced aluminum, the unit weighs just 21 lbs, making it 35% lighter than the competition. Less weight on your door means better performance, with no compromise on strength.
Easy Installation – No Realignment Required
Unlike other brands, our Ladder + Tire Carrier doesn’t require door hinge removal or door realignment. Our precision-engineered steel brackets make installation quick and hassle-free and preserve your door factory fit.
Unmatched Durability
We’ve engineered the strongest hinges in the industry by using 3/16" plate steel with welded gussets. This creates a bulletproof mounting solution that’s built to last, even in the toughest conditions.
Built For The Roughest Terrain
With Owl’s signature craftsmanship, this Ladder + Tire Carrier is designed to withstand the rigors of off-road use. We use only the highest quality materials, and our team of master welders ensures each product meets our exacting standards.
