    Alright you crafty bastards of tacoma world. I have a 35 inch spare finally!!! Now where the hell do I put it. I know they make a tire carrier for the bed but I can’t do this as I take my dirtbike to the track every weekend. I can’t do a swing out because I transport the bike with the tailgate down. Any ideas?

    I’ve thought about that but I haven’t been able to find a manufacturer that makes a secure mounting position. I was thinking about using an old spindle and somehow mounting it to the track rail. But getting the tailgate shit with a 35 behind the wheel arch is a tight squeeze.

    I really hate pulling my 6x10 trailer just for one dirtbike. And they have front bumper spare mounts? Never seen one. Besides on like old school RVs
