Spare tire fix
Drilled flst bar to go over all thread bolted to a couple of lug jols to keep them from moving added wing nut
There it has a home
At last got home for spare tire. Have a 71 coachman 11.6' slide in and when I bought and loaded it on my 79 f250 camper special it never accured to me what about the spare. It was in the bed when I bought this. After wrestling with the 32 inch tire on a steel rim a few times in and out of the camper I was almost ready to throw it away. Then my carb. took a dump in the Az. Strip so I've been camping waiting for my new carb to arrive. That gave me time to find a solution. Lucky for me this camper sticks of the bed by a little more than 3 feet so the previous owner had put 3 pieces of channel iron on the length of bottom for support I guess. I had a few things in my junk drawer and a mercy ride from a camper spending the night to the hardware store in st george this is what I came up with. Had to add 2 by4 so tire wouldnt wiggle Drilled hole through channel tube. Attached I bolt then took all thread and attached to eye bolt
