65 SS spare

round2K_old · June 3, 2007 at 6:21 AM

Could someone with an original SS spare wheel do me a favor and take a picture of the carriage bolt, nut and washer? Also provide the size of the bolt? I can't figure out if mine is original or not. The spare mounts upside down. Thanks.

The SS wheel requires a longer spare tire mounting bolt, I believe NPD sell's them.

Not only is the hold-down bolt longer (5/16 dia?), the retainer plate that indexes to the wheel hub is smaller in diameter than the one used for the stock steel wheel.

If needed NPD also sell's the spare tire mounting plate for the SS wheel.
