    Do you still have the rear frame horns on the frame? If so, mount the original style spreader bar to the horns. That bar should have the support bracket to mount a stock spare tire tower.

    I have the rear frame horns, but I do not see where the rear spreader bar has the support bracket. Is that a separate piece?

    Hi bt,

    The spreader I have has the support bracket welded on, some people cut them off. I can send a pic if you want. The spear tire tower would mount where your license plate is now so that would have to move.

    Your local salvage yard (LQK or CoPart, etc) has them, I've seen them as low as $10-15.
