Maybe you saw my post above about the BAL Spare Tire Carrier? I don't usually Rat myself out but I have to confess just in case some poor sap with the same Coleman 300tq wants to mount a spare tire.
After spending all day admiring my BAL install I was running wires from the trailer to the battery on the tongue of the trailer. Under the trailer on my creeper I am working my way towards the tongue....What do I see? Yep, a spare tire winch sitting right there that came with the trailer. I never knew about it and it was not pointed out during the walk through. Oh well it could have been worse there could have been a spare tire on it! All that said I don't think I would have wanted the extra tongue weight but probably would not have went through the BAL install if I had know it was there... So, look before you leap!
