You mean the stock tinfoil? Doubt it would support it. I have seen people make a hitch recieved mounted tire carrier though..

Considering the rear bumper is bolted onto the body and not the frame, I'd say "No"

could junkyard the factory swing out and fab up some inner reinforcement pieces to strengthen the sheet metal
