Yea Ive got a spare as well, I dont keep it in the bed of the truck though like I see alot of people on here do. I was going to go with T-handle plug kit anyway, but just wanted to double check

You should be fine for TRR, but some Raptor expeditions require a spare tire strapped in the bed of your truck (or you don't get to ride). They want to keep everyone moving along - imagine if you have a flat:

1) you need to get out your spare tire key,
2) get the handle that lowers the spare,
3) the time it takes to lower the spare,
4) drag out the wheel from under the truck,
5) remove the chain from the spare,
6) mount the spare,
7) push the old wheel back under the truck,
8) hook the chain inside the wheel,
9) crank up the wheel,
10) and put all the tools back in your truck.

OR, if the spare is in the truck bed:

1) remove the quick release spare tire strap,
2) drop the spare on the ground,
3) mount the spare,
4) throw the old wheel into the bed,
5) strap the wheel back into the chase rack.

Also great to have an aluminum racing jack. My 2-ton jack can raise my truck fully in 5 pumps, and drop the truck back down with a turn of the handle.

Casual driving doesn't require the extra speed for changing a flat, but it does come in handy when it's 115 degrees, or 5 degrees outside.

For this run "a" spare will be required to be strapped down in the bed of your truck. It is for convince as stated above.

Scratch that, it is not required to be strapped in the bed.

Good I was hoping the chase trucks had a spear spear. Not saying it won't happen but sd for the most part doesn't have sharp rocks. My tires have 1000 miles on them that helps.

Also I'll have a spear tie down so I can put the flat in the bed and not have to put it back under.

We'll try and have two spares on our rig, plus some extra equipment. Like isurvive mentioned, spare in the bed is a good idea, but like Luke said, not required. This isn't an all inclusive run like outlaw, but we'll try and help out anyone we can if that makes sense. Ultimately you're responsible for your own truck, but you have 17 raptor brothers there to help if they can.

If it warms up I should practice taking out the spare
