Hey guys. I own a 78 cj 5. Where can I mount my 33" spare tire. What kind of ideas you guys got. This is a low buck build. Right now I have it in the cargo area. No back seat. It's chained to the floor. But it bounces around. Thanks in advance guys

to keep the tire in the bed why use chains? Depends how i set up the jeep on where that 37 goes. Best place is in the bed no added weigh of swing outs. On mine when i do use the arm for a tire it is as well going to hold a 70q ice chest, fuel and a haul bag.
In the bed like 90% of the time with ratchet straps large. they can as well be used in some bush fixes.
It dont move.

Long trails packed for two and dog though. Like Rubicon and Dusy Ershem it looks like this. but that is the only time as well every year.

swing arms few things to be well made. The pivot should be made from a Axle stub and tapper bearings. That stub should not be surface welded but pass through welded on the inside and braced in the bumper. This one the arm its self is 85 pounds. Ice chest full is close to 80, 37 and 6 g of fuel the bag. I have hung off the end open like that. add another 170. Held no issue. 11 years. Its a old JCR. I change it to hold the ice chest and fit the rotos with 3 gallon ones. To re
