Nice vid and referenced it to remind me how the latch works. I did spray paint the bottom of the latch housing on the latch side as a reference for which side to place the jack to remove, which allows me to skip the strap. But I still carry a strap just in case.

Is the safety latch supposed to release as you're lowering the spare or do I have to use a screwdriver all the time?

Great Video! Been carrying a spare tire on my truck bed for months now, the original spare is stuck. I’m buying a new hoist.

Best thing is to grind the upper lock off with a cut off wheel on a grinder . Then go around it with ratchet strap ! US Cargo Control Ratchet Strap Heavy Duty, 2 Inch x 12 Foot Yellow Ratchet Strap with Double J Hooks, 10,000 lbs. Break Strength, Tie-Down Ratcheting Straps for Trucks and Trailers Preferably stainless 2 inch straps for salted road areas .

I really appreciate how you described and showed what was going on with the screwdriver once you got the latch down. Makes it WAY easier having seen that, considering on the truck we're doing it blind.

Drop the hoist I was just doing that damn trick for 30 mins ended up removing the hoist with the wheel on it. Mine was so stuck that when I had it down I used the flat head and it took force

Done and done! Tried two other videos, this one was the one that showed the way to actually get it done. Now I have to clean it up and make sure it works in the future when I actually need to use it.

Can’t believe how ridiculous this is engineered. That guy needs to be drug behind one of our trucks. I took the whole apparatus off. One 5/8 bolt and some wiggling to take it down. My spare will go in the bed

Mine was froze up and would not release and I had to pay to have a rollback haul the truck back to the house I then used a cutting torch and cut the cable right below the piece that holds the tire in place and got a new one that does not have the secondary lock for less than 50 dollars
