I removed that thing and spare tire when I lowered my truck, along with the rease hitch and all the crap that goes with the Jack. Knock on wood, I have never had a flat tire in 20 years of driving. I figure if you don't carry a spare then you will never have to use one..

i happens alot on fords, it helps if you dont roll it all the way up when you dont have a tire on the carrie, it helps it from getting tangled or bound up

I'd list that old one as a "Rowing Machine" and sell it on e-bay. Kinda what it looks like anyway. Maybe $199.

What tuner did you buy it from and does it raise and lower the spare faster?

i guess i could say that i bought it from ford racing.. lol
it does raise and lower the tire faster than the old one... of course, the old one was broke.. LOL
it's different then the old one.. this one has a spring on the end of it.. cool

I removed mine right after I purchased it and it is free to whomever wants to pay shipping or pick up.
