spare tire

I have a Ford 2001 E250 with SMB RB50. It has a ladder in the back and a roof rack. I am hesitant to use the roof rack, it will make the pop-top harder to lift. So my preference is mounting on the back ladder. The spare tire is mounted in the back undercarriage. I like to carry two 5-gallons...

I was just idly wondering whether the spare tire on an X17Z could be moved to the rear bumper. Its location under the hitch frame adds quite a bit to the tongue weight. That's currently around 540 lbs and I would like to get it down to 500. I remembered that on my pop-ups the spare tire used to...

We are very new to the RV Coach world picking up our 2013 Jayco Greyhawk this past October. No trips yet, but plan on a few shorter local trips this spring with a longer trip (3 weeks) in mid-spring 2024. The tires are in good shape but will replace all six at the end of 2024 (they are 5 and 6...

I would like to carry a fully mounted spare tire for the rig. 225/70-19.5 (I found a great place to fabricate a mount underneath the rear of my 2022 Omni XG32) But according to Ford parts the front wheels are a different part than the rear wheels. I am thinking that that is because of the...

I recently purchased a new Thor Chateau 24F. After having it sit in my driveway for about a week I noticed it had no spare tire. Is this a typical situation? I'd think a spare tire would be standard equipment. What do you think? Thanks

My 2016 Axis that I purchased Used does not have a spare tire. Did the axis not come with one when new? If I buy one where can it be mounted or stored? Mel

Tires, TPMS, and how old is your spare? Last summer I had added an aftermarket tire pressure monitoring system. I selected a very reasonably priced add-on system I found on Amazon (Favoto TPMS Tire Pressure Monitoring System Wireless Solar Power Installed on Window Pane with 4 External Sensors...

Hey all, New to the group, just bought a 2018 Thor ACE 29.3 and I'm looking to buy a spare tire and rim. Anyone know where I can buy a spare rim for this rig? Thanks, Chris

I'm trying to get some more info on clearance. Anyone running a Rigd Ultraswing Mega-Fit with a FWC Hawk on a Norweld Tray? I've found one picture on facebook, but can't find any additional info.

Hey everyone, just wanted to share a recent weight distribution mod I recently performed. After getting rid of my (2) 6V batteries (150 lbs.) from the tongue and replacing it with a single lithium (45 lbs.) in the pass-thru, it was an opportunity to move the spare tire from the rear bumper to...

SPARE TIRE After deciding to procure and carry a spare wheel and tire for my Freedom Elite 26HE, it came time to come up with a way to store it. I pull a Tow Dolly for our car, so the conventional hitch mounted tire rack would only be possible with a nearly $600 device to accommodate my hitch...

Hi there, We will pickup our 21C in about a month :-) Question re spare tire carrier...for removing the spare tire from the back of the trailer, do you know which socket and size we need? Is it the same 13/16" 6-point deep socket we would used for lug nuts at the sides of the trailer...

I had to change a tire today and mounted the spare. To my surprise the wheel is totally different. The "standard" wheel doesn't fit my spare tire rack, another surprise. I put photos of the the two wheels below. Are there any issues of traveling a long distance with different wheels...

What has your best solution been? We have 2 ebikes (50# each) and a spare tire that we want to have along on our journeys. At this point the best idea we have come up with is to use a heavy duty (750# capacity), hitch mounted cargo carrier. We've found some bike wheel supports (along with...

I am looking for the most cost effective and safe method for lifting my F150 with a 1400lb pop up slide in truck camper installed. This is in case of a flat tire. I don’t have steel front and rear bumpers so I don’t think a farm jack will work. I want to remove the jack stands from the camper...

I confirmed today that the new 2019+ Sprinter VS30 chassis will not include a spare tire on the Forester / Sunseeker line up. Other FR brands may vary so ask your dealer. So if you want a spare tire you'll need to purchase one and a way to mount it. I reckon that's one way to improve the...

Yes, I know I can get a cheap spare tire cover on Amazon. However I would really like a Jayco logo’d One for my 2018 287BHS. Anyone know how to get one?

Hello Creating a lists of TODOs for my 2001 Ford E250 SMB model RB50, one item I have been considering is placing a swing-away tire rack that is placed in the rear of the van The only reason for me is convenience to access the tire if the need arises. So far, in the 11 years of ownership, I...

My bus doesn’t have a spare tire. Has anyone added one, and if so, where? I have a 2007 Thomas Minotour

I lowered the spare tire on our F150 today so that I could inspect the Hellwig air springs (the driver's side air spring seemed to be leaking all of the sudden; turned out to be a loose valve core in the air chuck - big relief). I used the opportunity to check air pressure in the spare tire...

So I just got a new set of Goodyear Endurance for my 2015 White Hawk (replaced Rainier's). They were in good shape with appx. 3-4k miles on them, no dry rot. Anyhow, I still have the never-used Rainier spare on the back of my TT (with a cover over it). How long does a spare tire last...

Looking for used Aluminess goodies. Spare a tire and or side ladder for Ford. preferably between SLO and OC with ability to pick up in SD.

Hi guys, I'm new to the forum and this is my first post. I have a 2014 E350 with Agile 4x4 conversion and sportsmobile poptop. I've been working on it for about a year and have had a great time exploring northern baja and california I'm planning on mounting the spare tire on a swing arm which...

I typed a long story here and the forum lost it somehow so here is the quick: My Thor Vegas didn't come with a spare tire (can't believe that) but I have to spend more $ to buy a spare rim and tire. Worth it for 2 reasons 1 I don't want to wait on side of road 2 I don't want to pay 2-4 times...

Greetings, My 2016 Four Winds 22e did not come with a spare tire. It is built on a Ford E450 dually. My question is, if I do not carry a spare, what type of roadside assistance should I expect for a flat. I imagine that those wheels are rather hefty. Include a mounting system and that would...
