The subject invention pertains to stowable, modular lift conversion systems configured for aftermarket or OEM application to a truck, all-terrain vehicle (ATV), or utility task vehicle (UTV). Lift systems provided include removable and mounted systems with power provided by a battery, a winch, or linear motion device either on the lift or on the vehicle. Modular implements and lift attachments are provided.

Tire carrier

A tire carrier assembly is provided and includes a bracket, a tire carrier, a carrier support and a hoist. The carrier support is lockable and unlockable and is configured to support the tire carrier in a stowed position when locked and to swing the tire carrier toward a deployed position when unlocked. The hoist is coupled to the bracket and the carrier support and is configured to normally lock the carrier support and to be selectively actuatable to unlock the carrier support.
