1996 ranger 2wd still had that style hinged dropdown spare carrier. blair on sat 28 feb 2004 071751 +0000 nehmo sergheyev wrote 1980 ford z ton pick-up does anybody have any recommendations how to make a spare tire holder ive given up finding one at the junk yards and i dont like the in-the-bed or on-the-grill solutions. i want it under the bed behind the differential where its supposed to be. id like to be able to access it relatively quickly a hinged holder perhaps because if i do get a flat it may not happen where theres a nice shoulder. all of the uder-bed holders ive seen involve some sort of winch. ford has an absolutely horrible design - a greased cable that picks up all sorts of dirt kinks and generally is good for one tire change in adverse conditions. youre lucky if the thing winds back up after changing a tire. datsun now nissan used to have an open chain winch on their 1980s vintage trucks that was the best. never jammed never failed. see if you can find one of those. same with 80s toyotas. with either one youll still have to figure a way to have a hole avalable for the jack crank to get to the winch thingy. you may want to look at older 4wd little ranger pus . mine has a hinged dropdown spare carrier that looks like it was oem ford. i wish i knew what year this was mines just a trailer made out of the bed/frame/axle of a 83-86 pickup that i drag behind my bronco ii . but im curious as to why youd want your spare back and under the bed. its fine if you have a flat on the freeway / no major load/ no tow behind. youll curse and beat yourself to death if you have a flat in a mudhole with a heavy load and/or a tow behind . been dere-dun dat !! .
