Default Need 6 lug spare tire carrier.

Can only find 4 and 5 lug. Sick of carrying spare in truck bed! I just towed 1200 miles and forgot the spare (I actually have two for long trips and left em both at hoem). Didnt realize it till we were 2 hours from home. Stopped and grabbed a can of Fix-a-Flat but made it w/o incident. Anyone????

I have 6 lugs, custom matched rims, but mounted my single spare laying under the bow behind the tower, I could not find or buy a 5" by 12" one piece U bolt, so to hold me over until I can order the stainless stuff I bought a 4" wide by 5" long U bolt, double female for each side and some threaded rod.... install, cut to length.
I dislike the side rail trailer spare mount due to some of the ramps we use.

Good luck, Bryan

Or, you could buy a spare hub and bearings. Mount it on a spindle or steal shaft welded to a plate, u-bolted to the frame. I put mine under the bow also.
Then you are set for 2 emergencies.
