WHat's the deal with the stinkin' spare tires???
OK, my spare tire is pretty much brand new (as new as it can be for a 15 year old truck), and I'm beginning to understand why:
When I bought the truck, I knew it didn't have the jack, but I have a floor jack, anyway, so it wasn't a problem. That is, until I realized that the spare requires the lugwrench for removal. Again, no problem, I have a socket set with the right size socket....... OK, so the socket doesn't fit into the hole on the tire retaining bracket thingy (technical term). OK, that's a problem. Good thing I didn't have a flat tire. Guess I'll go to the salvage yard to see if I can find one, unless someone has a different fix for this.
