Carrying a spare tire?...

[Seaver]

Hey Guys, A buddy and I have been talking about him adding a spare mount to the rear of his new custom XP cage after seeing them mounted on many other UTV's.

Our question is this: What are you guys using for a jack and a lug wrench and more importantly where are you storing these items? I have seen many desert and other UTVs running a spare, seems like a good idea, just curious about tools and storage.

I have seen several guys who have welded a socket to the end of the passenger side "oh shit" handle on a RZR. Once you pull it out it makes a great lug wrench. You can also just weld on the 1/2" or 3/8" adapter so you can swap sockets on it. Like this, but for about $7

When we get flats we usually just get a few guys to tip it over to pull the tire or find something off camber to get the wheel in the air. Just had to do it on my friends Procraft built LT Rhino and it was a little tricky as there was so much droop, but we got it.
