Stepside Spare Tire Carrier

[JJanzen]

I am looking for a shortbed stepside spare tire carrier...the one that goes with the cutout in the driver's side fender. I have a 67 fender on a 69 bed. Can anyone tell me will a 71-72 carrier work on that fender/bed combo or will I need to get a 67 specific carrier and re-work the lugs to fit a 5 lug setup? Thanks for the help.

Only difference to my knowledge is 71-72 is 5 lug.

There is a difference between the short bed bracket and the long bed bracket (as well as the fenders cut out for the short bed and long bed). Make sure you get the right bracket and fender for the short bed. To see the differences check out (post #17) http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=326956

I made modifications to my spare tire bracket to accommodate the 5 lug pattern, as well as a mount for my CB antenna. I also converted the bracket to be a one peace bracket thru the fender instead of a two peace bracket with a bolt thru the fender. To see my modification check out my build thread (post #79 thru #84) http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...=318544&page=4 and (post #638) http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...318544&page=26 for the modified bracket installed.
