So with the wheel backwards you need to cut this down 1 1/2” for an AEV wheel.
Then you need to protect the tire from this cross bar, coach bolt through 1/2” heavy rubber mat, double nutted with red loctite. Bolt goes up when compressed by tire.

The ugly bit… my flatbed...
Yes, because you’re going to consider the bed as an alternative you need to consider the alternatives it opens up. I went through the “what if…” loop many times with a focus on what can I get out of the truck/camper because that’s living/traveling space. i.e I actually solved the spare wheel in...

Pre build and post build axle weights.
So 64% front 36% rear pre build.
And, 46% front 53% post build.
Post build had camper full of food, drinks, clothes. Truck had no people, 52 gallons of...

I’m biased as I have two Husqvarna 701’s, a Supermoto and an Enduro...
