It would lean a tiny bit away from the center of the vehicle...unless you had yours made to order for that size, then the bracket could just be made larger to keep everything perfectly upright. An extra inch would also likely force you to keep the rear seat on the side the wheel is mounted quite...

I've only tested it with 265/65_17

Definitely call them; a pleasure to work with.

Removal of the rear suspension leveling pump is required... I changed the rear shocks while I was in there, and swapped out the switch on the center console for a coin tray.

Hi all, By relocating the spare wheel to the cargo bay, I made room for an auxiliary tank. I bought one from Long Range America. If anyone's thinking about it, I highly recommend it. ~58 gallons of fuel goes a LONG way, and the installation is completely unobtrusive.

Matt, it's about 8x14", but you're definitely going to need to have a fabricator build it to fit -- the tolerances on the rod that goes into the 3rd row seat are very small. It must click in, but not rattle. Also, the angle of the wheel mount will change depending on tire size and carpet/mats...
