The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Driveline Under bed spare tire carrier for a 49' 3600

Mine was missing when I bought the truck. Can someone please provide some pictures and configuration of this. PO welded a carrier on the side of the bed and I suspect it is part of the original under the bed setup.

Thanks

Denny has pictures of 2 different styles in the link above

Thanks Gus, I think those pretty much tell the story and I feel
pretty sure that is about as accurate as you can get for the
pre-1951 3600. The one pictured from Woody's '51 was
the year they went to the diagonal carrier like all
the later Chevy's used.
Tim, I beat my self silly trying to make some sense out of the
pictures in the manuals. They leave a lot to be desired and
create more questions than they do answers. Some years back
when I was gathering up the parts for mine I accumulated a
whole album of pictures from the guys on the forum, I finally
sorted out the original carriers from the ones that were jury
rigged to fit the 3/4 ton earlier AD's.

Thanks guys, exactly what I was looking for.

Denny,

I could understand the diagram in MPC only after studying your photos.

Thanks,
