Stan you can hang a 35 from the stck carrier if you wanted too, now if it's the smartest thing to do remains to be seen. Them things are heavy, as long as it's snug agaings the tail gate stoppers (those rubber blocks) It might live for a while, the better solution is a carrier of the bumper or jeel the tire inside on the floor if you are not hurting for room in the back, a 35" tire will fit on the floor behind the front seats, just strap it down from the rear seat anchor points. Not the ultimate solution but it works.
