Has anyone attached a waste water tote to your spare tire? I'd like to attach something in the 10 gallon range to mine. I wouldn't want to put anything too heavy on the spare tire. In addition to weight concerns I have seen pics showing a lot of turbulence back there. If this has worked for you, please explain your method for lashing to the spare and pics would be great! Any thoughts regarding safety concerns, other options or any thoughts related to this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks In Advance,
Ron

As an alternative I found the Barker Mfg. 15 gallon Tote-Along with wheels fit nicely above the batteries, behind the gas bottles. Strap it on with Bungees or ratchet straps. Better than adding weight to the spare tire mount.

Thank You Charlie. I wondered about that too. Do you use any padding to keep it away from the trailer or is it even necessary?
