Side Mount Tire

I am in the process of mounting a spare on the drivers side of my 29 pickup. I have the tire mounted to the arm and the top tips toward the car. Is this normal?

Re: Side Mount Tire

no that is not normal. will the tire stand straight up before you put the lug nuts on. it could be the arm is bent.

Re: Side Mount Tire

The arm does not look bent but it could be an aftermarket arm. Does anyone have the angle that the arm should be? I could heat the arm and bend it but it would also lower the arm. Could someone with an angle finder let me know what the angle should be? Thanks Larry
