Directly below the tail gate on my '41 3/4 ton and right in the center of the rear panel is an old worn out hole. It looks like a guide hole for a crank used to lower the spare tire from under the bed. I have looked at what is left of the original under bed spare tire mount and at the catalog photos and do not see anything that looks like a small winch mechanism or any thing to mount one. So.. I'm wondering what this hole was used for.
