my spare is gone lol...it's about useless anyway...If I have a tire go, I will need a towhome on the trailer, or on site flat repair... there is no putting that tiny stock sized spare on, and I don't want to take up the whole truck bed with a current sized spare cause it sure as hell ain't gonna fit under the bed with that 5" exhaust under there...

You should make you a custom rear bumper with a swing away spare mount.

And 33's barely fit under these trucks. I know, I need a new spare because of it.

@Dodge Dude- You fit a 33" under the bed? Did you have to air it down to clear the receiver hitch?

It's even more fugly in person, I drive by it every week.

Well, 33 as in a 285/75. And I didn't the previous owner did and not very well. There are large chunks of thread ground out of it due to various parts of the frame.
I think it wasn't held down very well for a while.

Mine was pretty worn before it was placed up there. And yours might not be placed right.

The Cummins has so much power he cracked his traction bars and torqued his frame downward. So what else is new?

hmmmm...computer bounced off it's 65* (149*) temp warning. Interesting. Not sure if I need more cooling or if I just ran that game too long without actually playing it.

Blew the cat hair and dust out. Maybe that will help my load temps.
