On my truck, the hitch fits around the spare tire location, although I had to relocate the bolt/retainer for the cross strap. I used 1/2" plate to relocate the mounting hole for the cross strap bolt/retainer as it also functions as a spacer between the lower frame rail and the receiver hitch. It's a bit of a tight fit, but it works.
