ARMORDILLO® CR1 Tire Carrier Rack Attachment (For CR1 Chase Rack Mid Size Truck)

What Is the Armordillo® CR1 Mid-Size Tire Carrier?

The ARMORDILLO® CR1 Tire Carrier Rack Attachment is a bolt-on elevated spare tire mounting system designed exclusively for the CR1 Mid-Size Chase Rack.

It allows mid-size truck owners to mount a full-size spare tire above the bed using an angled, high-clearance design — preserving usable cargo space while improving off-road readiness.

This attachment transforms your CR1 Mid-Size Rack into a complete off-road support system.

Elevated strength. Trail-ready performance.

What Problem Does This Solve?

Off-road environments increase the risk of tire damage. However, many spare mounting options:

• Consume valuable truck bed space
• Reduce cargo capacity
• Affect weight balance
• Interfere with overland storage systems

The CR1 Mid-Size Tire Carrier solves this by using an elevated, angled spare mount that:

• Preserves bed functionality
• Improves departure clearance
• Maintains structural balance
• Keeps your spare easily accessible

It ensures your spare tire is secured without sacrificing utility.
