Spare Tire Recovery?

Testing was a success!

We tested over the weekend using two 4x4 post(8 feet long) proped up against
the rear of the open cargo bed. Hooked a small handcrank-style cable winch to the front of the cargo bed.

I had no problem hoisting an inflated 1100x20 wheel/tire up into the cargo bed.:jumpin:

I now will carry the winch in the tool box and tossed the two 4x4s op into the
cargo bed in case I get a flat tire I have to change.

Depending on the size of the object, it seems that this method would work great
for getting many types of heavy items into the cargo bed. Just in case you find
an affordable 40K pound winch for sale and need to get it home.:-D
