Spare tire

With a slide in camper on my F-350 how would you get the spare tire down with the camper on?

That depends on the camper. With some like our Northstar it is not a problem. Maybe otherwise have to drop the jacks and raise the camper off the bed.

Another good thought I hadn't thought of.....I'm thinking Steve's right if your camper hangs down out the back. Never had........oh, no, no, no.... not going to tempt fate by saying that......

A follow-up on my post yesterday. My camper is a Lance 1130, which is 11’6” and does hang over by about 48”. I loaded it on the F350 yesterday and found that I still have access to the bumper and the hole for the spare tire lowering. I will need to fabricate an extension for the factory tool. I had search for information on this subject over the last few weeks and actually found nothing. I do thank you that responded.
