Angry Spare tire bracket and hardware

I have an '85 D150. The previous owner threw away the spare tire bracket and hardware!
Should I go hunting for the OEM parts from the local yard or can a newer hoist style be installed without too much trouble?
If so, does anyone know which hoist would work the best?

Tired of carrying around the tire in the bed of the truck with it chained up!

Yep, I have been on ebay, but since it is a 1st gen, not much out there. I'll keep looking.
(next day) I stand corrected. I found the bracket and the bolt/wingnut on eBay.
