I have a 06 SUT and I want to move my plate to the bumper somewhere, while keeping the spare tire rack. I want to show my spare instead of covering it with the stock plate holder. Does anybody have any ideas and or pictures of a good mount/bracket or custom work. Also I want it in black, I'm not a big fan of all the "Bling"

It's even cheaper and looks good if you bolt it through the bumper to the left of the pssd tow hook. Go to autozone and get one of there lights and mount it under your tire carrier using the existing wire.

Than you have to tkae your spare tire off and sawzall the mounting point for that l polate bracket. Buy a center cap for the rim, and your done.

The problem, Conrad, is if your truck ever sees rocks you'll lose that plate in minutes.

Made one myself with a generic plate holder fron Discount Auto Parts, plus the liscense plate light off of my stock RC51 streetbike.

Was it difficult to remove the spare?

not sure the question, but if you are asking about removing the rear tire carrier its only held into the mount with 1 bolt I believe, loosen it and the carier will lift right out. You do have to dissasemble the liscense plate light assembly too.
