i know there is/was several guys on this forum with f450/550 trucks wondering how you carry your spare tire..mike mck in your pics I see you have your spare under the truck..

Custom 50 Gallon tank is why the spare is mounted where it is. This was done by the company that did the truck bed conversion for the dealer long before I bought the truck. Thank god I have never had to use it. That 19.5 tire and wheel combo is a *****

wondered what they did for the fuel tank on your truck because when I was going to shorten mine the crossmemebers all ended up in the wrong spots for a premade tank..your right about 19.5 being a heavy sob is why i would like to get aluminum wheels. how's the spare held up? they use a winch like has been suggested..seems easiest way..
