2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Spare Tire "Get er downer?"

[TGibbs]

I lost all my jack tools (because I just had to have subs under the back seat!!) and I need to get my spare down to change it. Does anyone now a cheap place to get just the two tools I need to get the tire up and down? Oh and I am putting a 33" tire on the spare as that is what I am running on the rest of the tires, does anyone know if it will fit up there?



Thanks

Only place for the stock tools will be Junk yard or the dealer...



A 33" tire will BARELY fit ... . TIGHTLY... . depending on the type of tread. If you have the stock exhaust, you might have to watch out for tire to exhaust clearance for heat.

I have a 285/75/15 under there and it's a fairly tight squeeze.

Tire tool

Got my truck with no tools or jack. . Bought an 8ton hydraulic and made a spare tire drop tool from a piece of 1/2 round stock. A little work with a grinder to make a six sided head, then bend a 90 other end for crank handle. Not a big deal.

A socket will work.

I should have said a bald 33" tire so hopefully it will fit!! :-laf

I had an older ffffurd that had the jack and tools under the hood. Possible to fab something up to hold stock stuff? I have 305/70/16s and the spare (same size) fit in the stock location - it's kind of close (1/2") to the 4" tail pipe though - I need to make a heat sheild
