The tray is different, the top spring bars are different, and one
coolant hose is different.

Subject: Alloy spare into an 83?

Went to put the alloy spare into the 83 this evening and -- it doesn't
want to fit without MAJOR work. Looks like it's just touching the
coolant line on the passenger side, too (although not compressing it,
it's snug). Is the later spare tire tray deeper than my 83? If so, how
do I get them off?

thanks,

john
