@Richard Ludvigh Hi Richard, Having a little trouble using this site. I did post some photos and description of the spare tire mounting, but they seem to have disappeared. It may be easier to send you the photos directly. Simply the tire is mounted directly under the bulkhead between the galley and the sleeping quarters. It is suspended by a galvanized 1/2 inch carriage bolt. instead of just using a washer between the bolt and the floor, I passed it through a short piece of angle iron that is attached both to the floor and the bulkhead, to better distribute the load. There is 11 inches road clearance with 14 inch tires The tire is very easy to remove with this method, but more hassle to put back, however you are more likely to wait until it is repaired before putting it back, and the guys at the repair shop may do that for you. One important thing I didn't mention is, be sure to check for screws protruding through the floor, and grind them off smooth, or your tire will be damaged.
