Default Replacement for spare tire eye bolt

I have everything I need to mount an under the bed spare tire carrier (not an original system) except for the eye bolts. I have found eye bolts but nothing with a small eye like the originals. Does anyone have a source? Thanks.

Try welding an eye on the correct size bolt.

I have a spare tire hanger eye bolt for a 56 F100. Are they the same?

Yeah, they are, all 48-52 F-1's use the same setup. I think since that thread was written, someone is repro'ing all the parts.
