Can you think of a better place to mount a 35" spare tire? I can't put it in the stock location as the exhaust would melt the tire. I don't want to mount it on the front of the truck like a farmer, and I don't want to replace my tailgate with something like "Tiregate" either. My toolbox had the opening handle clear over on the left, and it dawned on me that the right side of the box had nothing really to block. So, I decided to come up with a solid mount for the right side of the box. I can still access the box easily enough, and the tire is out of the way.
Besides, Buford is a big ol baby now, and I doubt he'll ever NEED the spare, but it's nice piece of mind, and it's kind of a cool addition to the truck (or at least I thought so).
