I'm told this is a spare tire carrier, however I can not find this configuration in my assembly manual. This channel slants downward toward the rear and is ridgid. I can only inagine a type of bolt that slids in this channel and somehow holds the tire in place. does anyone have an idea? | | | | | Joined: Jul 2005 Posts: 640 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jul 2005 Posts: 640 | Mallen, I have a '48 Thriftmaster myself, and it has the original spare tire carrier in it. when I get the chance, I'll send you a picture. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2006 Posts: 9 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Apr 2006 Posts: 9 | | | |
