Hope you got off all of the rust, because bedliner traps moisture?

Looks good, but I would have hit it with rust converter forst. The stuff is cheap, and easy to use. Just paint it on and let it dry.

Yeah whoever thought mounting spares under the vehicle was a good idea was a moron.

It’s more whoever thought using a mechanism that’s impossible to operate if it gets rusty. I spent 2 hours under my truck in an auto zone parking lot borrowing a 15 mm socket and pulling out the single 2 inch long loctite’d bolt that holds the whole thing on an 1/8 th turn at a time.

Of course this bolt is directly over the tube the pulley actuator runs through so I had to hack saw that out. It was a loooong day.

Actually, it’s when it gets so rusty that it just falls off when you’re driving.
