What kind of strap are you using, and did you install new mounts to hook it too?

I made a setup that mounted it at an angle towards the front of the bed and it looked neat but took all the bed space so I ditched it. I personally would just put it up where the spare is. What do you mean by drags the back end down? Tops that bigger tire weighs 20 pounds more than stock. That won’t drag it down at all

I just got mine under the bed . . .i wish they made the lowering rod extension 3/8" so I could use my impact driver when I rotate.

I just drilled into the bed and put three anchor points in the truck, and I got a 3 point strap from Amazon.

My truck is a daily driver and I use it for offroading, so I don't care about taking up bedspace. That's why my spare tire is in the bed. And when I need load something big into the bed, i put it on top of my spare or i move my spare underneath my truck for a bit.

Lot's of option for straps and anchor points at https://www.macscustomtiedowns.com/. I have a Front Runner rack and hung my spare tire underneath. Still have use of the bed floor.

That seems like a lot of work. Maybe I am just too lazy to care. I use the bed far too much for a DD.

It's made by a company called Pro Armor, and I got it on Amazon. It was $50 bucks and works great. And I drilled holes to add three anchor points in my truck bed.

$65 from their website, but I so need this for the RV spare on long trips!!

Why cant you just use the 6 tie downs with ratchet straps?
