[QUOTE="slimmytimmy, post: 2051678, member: 64684"] I run my truck extremely hard multiple times each week. I run it over whoops, arroyos, mountain trails, sand dunes, jumps, and most other conditions you can think of. I have only had it come loose once. That was around 5,000-10,000 miles. It only needed one or two rotations to tighten it back up. I have rubbed the spare on the ground a few times going off of banks in arroyos. I run a B&W hitch and it usually drags before anything else. The front wheels have been able to pull it off of everything so far. It really sucks to change flat tires when one of the rears blows out, or just goes flat if your spare is stuck under the truck. I have multiple jacks, but I carry a fairly compact off road bottle jack. It has multiple extensions and various wide bases to accommodate vehicles like Raptors with long suspension travel. I also carry a couple off pieces of plywood to spread the load in nasty conditions. After changing many tires, I’ve learned to throw an extra spare in the bed if I’m over 30 minutes away from my extras. I only pull the bottom spare out if I’m getting really wild and I want to lose weight. Send it! [/QUOTE]
