For the spare tire. I just made a triangle subframe and put a receiver tube as the top center piece. Then a spare tire mounting plate from ruff stuff. Slide it in and out easy. I built it like the AEV tire carrier for jeeps. I have a bolt on the back of the tube to help hold it in. Could...
h2 wheels are always a good option. probably harder to find now, vs back in the day. AEV wheels as well.

I ran the Wilco pre runner gate for years. Worked great, could re positing the spare inside the bed or behind depending on the need at the time. So overall no bed space was lost.
best pic I could find quickly
Switched to a flat bed, of my own design. Built a carrier onto the side of the...
that was my point, written a long way. They need to be serviced as well. Make sure if you can't do it yourself, you have people who can do it for you.
I think the new general mechanic may be lost with spindle and bearings. vs I just replace part A with part A, it's what the book says. With...
