Default Cobra Trailer Spare Tire mount failure

Cobra should extend the top steel tube another 20mm in both directions
to capture the bolt with holes. Then tack weld the bolt heads for anti
rotation. The wheel has plenty of clearance for a longer cross-tube.
You still need the third leg to prevent bolt fatigue failure from the
constant rocking.
