An off-road vehicle utility rack apparatus. The off-road vehicle utility rack apparatus allows a spare tire to be attached to a top surface and a fuel container or other container (e.g., water, tool, suitcase, etc.) to be stored on a bottom surface of the off-road vehicle utility rack apparatus. The off-road vehicle utility rack apparatus attaches directly to integral structural components of the off-road vehicle (e.g., ATV, UTV, OHV, etc.) does not interfere with items (e.g., tool box, suitcase, etc.) stored in integral storage space on the off-road vehicle. The off-road vehicle utility rack apparatus is dynamically lifted in an up and down direction to allow easy access to the fuel container and/or the items stored in the integral storage space of the off-road vehicle.
