FS: Spare Tire Mounted Bike Rack-2 bikes

This bike rack fits vehicles with a rear mounted spare tire. I've used it on a Rodeo, Wrangler, and Pathfinders.
There is an adapter plate that goes on behind the spare and a small receiver sticks out in the center of the spare. When you remove your spare there must be a flat surface where the studs stick out.Anything that is there to hold the spare up while you put the nuts on the studs must come off.
