does anyone have a spare tire mounting bracket and large wing nut to sell? I drive a 74 Thing and am in need of both, the bracket and the nut. I believe this will complete my car. If anyone does, please attach a pic and a price. Thanks.

I made my spare hold down bracket from 1/8 X 1 inch weldable steel from Lowes (in a 3 foot piece) and used a commone 12mm(? I think) nut. It is about 6-8 in long and bent on the vise to fit the spare. I used the picture in the owners manual to get an idea of how to form it. It ain't OEM, but it works and cost me about $3. Bill
