Spare tire mounts? Custom, retro'd, bolt on?

[AirmanSkee]

Im just worried with my exhaust and shock setup I cant fit without something rubbing. And I also dont trust that cable, not on Alaskan roads. I will snap a few shots here in a little bit to see what you guys think.

My 33 fits under my truck too, I just don't want the spare there anymore. I plan on dumping my exhaust after the axle right in the middle.

I toss my full size spare in the bed when I'm going too far from the house other than that i leave it. The spare under my truck is still the original goodyear wrangler t/d that came with the truck that can't be good for anything but i know a 33 won't fit under there with my hitch so I've never permanently took it out. I like the prerunner setups but use my bed too often for it to practical.

33 fit under my truck fine. Took It out and tossed it in the box, don't trust that little cable lol

Exactly the reason i dont like it....

I watched a friend lose his new 33 on the highway right in front of me cause the cable let go...........

hell I lost my brand new factory sized spare on my 96 because the cable broke and it was on s truck with zero rust

I've thought about makeing a swing out gate that mounts to the bumper. Similar to what the jeeps and most aftermarket rear carrier bumpers are set up like.

All this talk of breaking stock mounts is scaring me. Mine is holding up totally fine with like a 275 A/T on it.

Well I went and swapped off my wheels today. The buyer let me use their old wheels/tires til my new setup comes this weekend. So I am running on some old beatup 35's that are just horrid. But he paid me extra to get them early. So I just have to watch myself with these. Kinda sucks because the Truck Meet just got moved to tomorrow. But anyways, back on track. I looked and I DEFINITELY do not trust my stock tire mount. I think somebody already tried to modify it before I got ahold of it, and it doesnt look very trustworthy. So for now, its just gonna get tossed into the bed and locked down.

Front wheel is the rims and sheisty tires Im using for now. Rear wheels are what I just sold.
