I've not added an airlift rear bumper (yet) to my humvee, so at the moment my spare is just laying flat in the "bed" of my four-man soft top truck. However, that 160lb wheel and tire could be an unwelcome intruder into the cabin should I have to stop hard (currently it's tied to the tailgate latches to keep it from shifting).
When I was in the service, I don't recall that we ever had a spare in the truck--but that could just be my bad memory. In any case, I'm thinking about mounting the wheel/tire in the bed so I don't have to worry about it. I'm interested in hearing what others have done to keep the spare in place: horizontal Y-straps, upright chock brackets, whatever. Pictures would be especially appreciated.
