TN Interior spare tire carrier 72 jimmy - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

MattDR · 12-05-2018, 12:36 PM

I bought a 1972 jimmy custom and it came with a couple of boxes of spare parts. I’m not going the original route and already have 33 inch tires. No need for the spare tire carrier. It looks to be in good condition. I don’t know if there are mounting bolts or anything else but the bracket. I will go through everything and look if I knew what to look for. Price is 300 shipped in the us. If I find the rest of the hardware I will include it as well.

The hardware looks like this. Wheel mounting is 7/16-20 fine thread carriage bolt, large washer and lug nut. You may also see a short 1/2-13 coarse thread carriage bolt and an L or Z shaped wing nut that was used in later years. The carrier to floor bolts are the recessed head 7/16-20 shown in the second pic (not the zinc plated one).

Thanks. I’ll be on the lookout and update with my findings.

There was a sandwich bag with a label for spare tire bolts. 1 seems to be the correct bolt the other two where all that was in the bag. No wheel hardware

Even if only these 3 bolts they are still pretty hard to come by. Good luck on your sale!
