The thimble partially threaded onto the stud and welded in place worked for me!

I guess, the thingy that goes over the wheel stud for duals? It has the square drive on it.

If memory serves, I threaded on a thimble and welded it in place. Its been a couple years and has not broken yet. I will try to check and verify.

To add a little bit of info to this thread, I chose to extend the studs on the plate rather than extend the whole assembly out and down. I didn't want that bar to stick out any farther than it does stock.

What brand tire ya got there? Looks like a good tread.

Not great pics, but: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/conversations/41733-ever-see-multifuel-can-do-cartwheels-2.html

I got it covered. Just came in from Gimpyrigging it. I have 395s on my truck and am using an A3 rim and 14.50R20 as a spare. I figure if cars can use a tiny tire, so can the deuce. If I put it on and there is any trouble, I will simply pull the axle from where the tire is.

Thanks GT! Thats what I needed. I will go ahead with my plans of making some kind of spacer to go on the bottom of the stock bracket. Yes, I will be carefull when working with this mount.

That would be great!

Anyone have any pics of the A3 spare tire mount? I am using an A3 rim and tire for a spare and the backset of the rim doesn't really work with my A2 spare carrier. Before I go crazy building a "Gimpyrig" I'd like to see a factory mount. TIA.
