So I've got 33" tires on my ranger and am looking for ideas on how you guys have mounted your spare tires. Right now mine is just sitting in the box but it would be nice to have in secured maybe even locked so that no one can steal it.

Where have you mounted your spares?
Thanks

I have a fabtech flat mount. I found mine super cheap but something similar would be pretty easy to make. All it is, is a plate with a threaded hole then two mounting holes on the side. Mounted underneath the bed so when I take the spare out all there is is a small hole in the bed. Then the shaft has a hole where you lock it underneath the truck.



people have also made mounts on the side of the bed and bolted them down

They make a spare tire mount for a two inch receiver, I have the reciever on the front of my truck. But it would work front or rear im sure.

those things look cool, but I can't talk myself into paying 100$+ for something to hold my tire in the bed, I just use a bungee chord, lol
