We have a new trailer. On the back of my trailer there is about a 1 1/2 inch trailer hitch receiver tube with a hitch pin into which the 'L-shaped' spare tire mount is inserted. This mount with tire sways signicantly when in motion or when just pushed back and forth by hand. It is obvious enough that a passing motorist warned me that this is a hazard if it falls off, altho I think he exaggerated.
I am thinking a thin metallic shim between the receiver and spare tire mount would cure the problem, the gap is not very large, but is there a better solution? Is this swaying best ignored??
