Subject:Spare tire holder?
From:Jeff Strickrott
Date:Mon, 2 Feb 2004 20:48:08 -0500

Hi All:

I finally got my van to the point where we are going to put serious
miles on it. In preparation, I put the spare tire and holders back on
the van. It has been off for two years.

Anyone know what or how the two bent rods that hold the spare tire down
(to the plate) are supposed to be positioned at the front? What do they
attach to or rest against? Currently I have the bent ends just hooked
into two holes in the front frame crossmember, but this does not keep
the spare from moving around.

TIA
Regards,
