How do you get to your spare tire with the camper on?

I have the spare mounted on the front of my 2000 Dodge, but now with a new F350 I would prefer not to do that. Anyone have any suggestions as to how you are able to crank down the spare? Thanks, Pat

You can use the rods that came with the truck and a twelve inch crescent wrench clears my camper. I also carry a 20 ton bottle jack as I'm not sure I would like to use the stock jack without the camper. The fun part is dragging the heavy tire from under the truck. I try to drop it on a tarp and than drag the hold thing out.
