I meant welding in addition to the bolts.
I meant welding in addition to the bolts.
Yes I know, but my welder is only a 90 amp cheapy that makes bird sh** splatter welds. So I don't think me running a crappy bead is really going to make any difference. So I'll either pay someone to weld it, or if the bolts aren't in the way put the original 2 back in.
My aftermarket hitch has the nut on the other side and bolt goes through the other way
there is a write that Sal had put up for this MOD as well. I had did and what I had to do was just grind down the excess on the outer ones & I was able to fit a 265/70/17 tire and works for me.
Nice write up

Grinding down the bolts I still had to keep my 255/75/17 deflated to fit. Thats why I wanted to go this route. Not sure yet if it makes a real difference. If anything it's at least a rounded edge instead of a corner poking into my tire.
my main issue was the tire sits lower than the stock one because the over-sized tire does not fit in the preformed area that the spare sat in. It does clear the bolts thoe. (Hope that make sense)
