Spare tire storage location

[David Tweet]

Trying to configure the spare tire retaining assembly, between frame rails at rear. There is a crossmember, but nothing else. Have to fab something close to stock, would it be possible for someone to post a photo of the assembly? 

Thank you. Dave.

One end connects to a cross member. A piece of "C" channel bolted to the frame rails. The other end connects to the frame at the rear left side.

The underside part often comes up on ebay , for more photos if nothing else . Dodge Central of Michigan shows one ; Spare Tire Carrier part number B-606 with bolts at $255 . For 15 " , 16" , and 20 " wheels , for the guy who doesn't want to make his own .

I have scored a couple of the cable lift type from newer trucks and bolt into the crossmember. Crank up and down. Saves the eyes and body.
