Fitting a 37" spare

[derian06]

today I tried what I think digglesworth said and flipped the spare mount upside down and bolted it back in trying to fit my spare tire, here are the results.

Need to grind a bit of metal off the lower holes of the mounts so that I can actually bolt them in, but other than that it fits fine! No body lift needed!

You're gonna need a back-up cam just to see out the back! Nice job, I'm jealous.

Flip it and file out the holes a little to match the bolt pattern....

Matched my bolt pattern just fine, the only thing I have to do is grind the lower holes on the mount, because the bolt hole is hidden by metal.

Yep literally took it off and turned it 180*
