Used to use Chevy LUV spare tire hoists but when they became scarce we now use Ford Ranger or Nissan. What is nice about the wind up hoist is you never have to get down on the ground but just reel out enough cable to hook into the center hole and then drag the spare forward and up into place. When removing spare leave enough slack in the cable to move truck ahead and spare will be behind truck, not under it. Made a few side mount recesses in fenders by cutting out curve in the right spot, turn piece over and weld back in. What was convex is then concave. Nice job on the factory style mount by the way.
