Default Mobile rear tire carrier

Has anyone made anything similar? I made this up yesterday and am looking for feedback if you have designed or seen anything similar. Thanks

I thought of incorporating it into rear bumper but don't need to carry a spare all the time so I incorporated it into my receiver. Do you have plans for the swingout?

I made one out of the reciever too. But there was some play in the hitch and after a long period of hitting bumps it tore the bumper mounts from the rear of my steel bumper
