grumpin Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 He seems pretty firm at $50. Let me know! Hello, thank you. I was deciding what I wanted to do and realized it's mounted in the front of the bed. I have a tool box there, so I was thinking of mounting a tire in the back. Sorry, it won't work for me. Anybody else? Again, thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ford F834 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Hello, thank you. I was deciding what I wanted to do and realized it's mounted in the front of the bed. I have a tool box there, so I was thinking of mounting a tire in the back. Sorry, it won't work for me. Anybody else? Again, thank you! Mine mounts in the rear, behind the wheel well. But now that you mention it, it does not look like the illustration from the MPC. I will have to look at it when I get home to see if it has any “Ford” type markings on it. Mine may be aftermarket. I assumed it was original but I never put much thought into it. I had planned to mount it ahead of the wheel well if the tire would fit there on a short bed... but it’s looking like the floor is beveled and I may need one of the ones shown in the MPC if I want to do that... I guess we will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be on my short bed crew cab F350. I don’t know that that mount is designed to handle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
