WTB 5 lug wire wheel spare carrier
Looking for a spare tire carrier for the back of my touring after I converted to steel wheels. Haven't found any local at the swaps. Not looking for something perfect, I'm on a budget. Please let me know what you have. Thanks

Re: WTB 5 lug wire wheel spare carrier
If you already have a Ford spare carrier all you should have to do is unbolt the "Y" and the wires should be able to bolt onto the triangle part that is hidden beneath. Hope I explained it clearly. Jim
Ps. I added a couple pics of the one from my roadster the stock ones I would think are about the same as far as the 'Y'.

What kind of carrier do you have now & what kind of "steel" wheel are you hoping to mount.

I think there is a Service Bulletin that explains all this.

Model A wheels are a different bolt pattern. A goose neck carrier will need some modification.

That's no problem to change the pattern
