I went to install the spare tire in my 76 C10 lwb the other day and the holder appears too long. The PO did not have the spare mounted but gave me the holder when I bought the truck. But when I crawled under to mount the thing, it appears to be much too long. I figure I either have the wrong mount or I'm looking at the wrong place to install the bolts that hold it up.

If anyone could post or send me (SDELVY55@aol.com) a pic of their spare mounted, or the bracket installed without a spare I would appreciate it. Also a pic of the bolt positions (where they attached to the frame) would also be a big help.

Any info is appreciated.

Thanks!
