    Hey Guys,
    I searched around but seems that i probably have to ask a dumb question.
    I bought a 2001 a few years ago and it it turns out it didn't have the unique key in the tire kit (let alone any of the typical 3pc rod parts for the jack). I had to cut the wire to get it down recently. I would normally pull the bed and swap in a new hoist, but I have a flippac camper on it, and not really setup to begin to tackle getting that off. Any hack or ideas? I want to keep the spare in that location due to the camper shell. I'm less worried about security and don't have to keep a hoist. Open to ideas.
    Thanks

    Remains to be seen I bought the tires and wheels the rest came along
    If you really need your spare in that position get your new hoist weld it fast and call it good.

    you can build whatever will work in your case. If you don`t have the skills draw what you want and have it built.
