canadianVRss Posted June 15, 2014 Report Share Posted June 15, 2014 Spare tire, bahaha, just extra weight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downeast Johnny Posted June 15, 2014 Report Share Posted June 15, 2014 A bunch of the jack / spare kit was missing when I got my truck. Been too lazy to remove the spare. I'm sure all that mess under there is froze up and gonna be a P ina A to remove. So I guess I'm in the "no spare" camp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb2big4u Posted June 15, 2014 Report Share Posted June 15, 2014 No spare here. I make sure I carry a tire plug kit and a small cigarette lighter air compressor for that blue moon nail in tire moments. I noticed after so long the times when I actually needed my spare, I went to grab it and it would be flat...

SuperDave Posted June 18, 2014 Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 I've got one under the bed... but it's never been down. I've never needed it before, but if I do I'm screwed... it won't come down! The winch is broken and it won't budge... anyone got any experience with this problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aldofashow Posted June 18, 2014 Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 I've got one under the bed... but it's never been down. I've never needed it before, but if I do I'm screwed... it won't come down! The winch is broken and it won't budge... anyone got any experience with this problem?there is a lock button on the piece that drops down that looks like a metal pecker found it after I removed the whole setup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aldofashow Posted June 18, 2014 Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 Also wanted to say that after I removed my spare tire setup I found the plate where it mounted to be a great spot to mount my SS light and I get complaments all the time how good it looks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAFarmerSS Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 Nope. 3" duals started melting it... Took it off, never put it back on. Gonna build a low profile bed mount eventually for trips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLOWN SS/T Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 I took mine off before installing the drop kit, the bracket or release deal was screwed up so I just chopeed up I believe. There's a video on youtube or write up on this issue, and how to get off right. The dam 17" tire and wheel are heavy, I was hauling it around in the bed for awhile and just took it out. Figured I only drive my truck locally when I do anyways so I can call someone to bring me a spare or just take advantage of my insurance or the wifes AAA at worse case.

demonte1997 Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 I finally got around to dropping my spare a few days ago. Wasn't as bad as I thought. And, it was aluminum, which was a bonus. Leaving it off for now while I blast any surface rust off the frame down there and POR it. I got AAA, so if a flat happened, I'd just call them-obviously needing a flatbed for it.

dieseltech320 Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 I had the same problem when I removed mine, had to end up just cutting a cut off wheel and started cutting stuff till it came down lol. I don't feel as bad not carring mine now after seeing all these responses. lol I've got one under the bed... but it's never been down. I've never needed it before, but if I do I'm screwed... it won't come down! The winch is broken and it won't budge... anyone got any experience with this problem?
