I have 33 pics of my sliding spare tire carrier project on my Fliker site. It is "supposedly" OE but I added a bit of length to it to accomodate larger spare than OE bias, and as metal looked weak I added another angle, and chaged thin angle for 3/16.
Give me yell if you have questions.

Post from 2009, but Thank You for the pictures! This will greatly help me in getting my spare tire bracket installed.
