Still looking for more ideas

 

Me too.

 

This is my favorite one: Rat-Cage Spare Tire Carrier

 

Trigger I'm really liking yours, the rest seem to take up a good bit of bed space.

 

mine just lays in the bed... locked to the bed... i want a pre runner tire gate BUT no one makes them for a flairside BOOOOO! lol

 

I don't see why you would want to put your spare in the bed if it fits under the truck still?

Anyway heres my spare

 

That takes the least bed space of all. I'm tempted to go with that. Light weight and (I am scared to type this) how often do you get a flat?

Mine does not fit under the bed anymore, the hitch killed that.

 

Not going to even answer that because I don't want to jinx myself lol, you get the idea...

 

haha.

- a tire gate would be a good idea.

Because my bigger tires come next week and its much easier for me to drag a tire from out of the bed versus from underneath AND because I want it!

 

you tell 'em Brenda! thats the reason i have a fabtech spare tire carrier in my bed. theres no way a 32+ can fit underneath my trucks bed due to the exhaust and receiver hitch.

 

How does that fabtech mount? I'm really liking that one.

 

it's bolted onto the bed of the truck, using bolts, nuts, washers.
it's great, but it takes away use of the bed. but, i never haul anything in my bed anyway.

 

Somebody on here used a Jeep Wrangler spare mount and put it in the bed...

 

Mine just lays in the bed along the back wall.

 

i dont even carry a spare... it sits out in the back field somewhere at home..

 

That'll do you no good whatsoever when you rip a 10" gash in the sidewall while buried in a ditch. My last REAL muddin trip that happened, no spare, the river came up overnight and cost me a transmission in the end...

Live and learn...

oh dont drive your truck through a river...

 

Like he had a choice!

 

or when you crack a wheel...
