You should see his driveway

 

Well I don't know if this will get me pulled over but I'm going to try. Just want my bed space back.if anyone has a better way to secure it please let me know.

 

well you can weld/bolt another bar in between and using old hub or drilled plate bolt the spare to it.

 

That's a good.idea....thanks.

 

Leave it at home when not wheeling?

 

It's a daily driver. Might be better to always have a spare.... Though the stock spare is still under the truck...... Maybe.

 

Yeah, I have @Norilsk garage, but I have to work on his junk while I am there.

yeah it isn’t great….

should be fine. If it doesn’t move or wiggle you are good. Had mine on my roof a while back.

 

?

 

$20 is $20…..

 

Haha, he's not paying you.

 

20 rubles = 38 cnts.

 

You are carrying around both your 37" spare and your stock spare all the time? If you blew a 37" tire, could you still use a 31" stock time as a spare?

 

Short distance very slow yes, long distance at any speed will result in his differential blow out. Also your abs, and speedo will be freaking out for that time

 

the side of my 315 got a hole so I used the spare.( the reason I'm on 37's now) anyway yes I think I could use it but if it happens in some remote place I'd be stuck carrying bad 37" tire around somewhere on the truck until I could buy another one..so either way I have to account for somewhere to put a 37" tire and I refuse to have a rear tire on the bumper mount. Comming from the "jeepland" these trucks are long enough as it is. Though saying that there's some trail limos our there that go everywhere so maybe if this dose not work out a bumper mount might be my only option....

 

You can always join the land rover side, British Jeep, just less reliable.

 

or the 4runner route, spare on the roof


alternatively the dodge and ford route:

the front bumper route might be the best overall since you can feed your winch line through the middle and if the winch snaps, you have a 37" tire as a buffer/ shield

 

I ordered this part. Turns out it shipped from the United Arab Emirates. Should get it any day now

I got the last one. Some Arab is probably missing a drum brake bracket for his Land Cruiser. He'll have to continue driving on two wheels for the time being.

 

I understand you still need a place to put a 37" tire/spare, but why do you need the stock spare? Isn't it just extra weight? Unless you're expecting to have 2 tires punctured at the same time.

 

I know.this may sound werid but it's not for me. It's for whoever need one that I'm with.

 

It's cold.outside but I did not trust the spare tire down that I had so changed it up a bit this morning. Spring time I'll consider changing again
