well after the millionth person called me out on not having the matching wheel on the back, I finally put the 5th 24" on.

cut some off.


added a stud.


used four 3/4" nuts for a spacers


I like to use all spline-type lugs so they're easier to start down in the seat

I not one of the ones that called, however I am doing the same thing at the moment. I am just waiting on the tag/hitch to come in. Thanks alot for the pics....Jamie

Also, did you add the extra stud for pure support? Were 3 not enough? Also, why the 3/4" nut in the back for the spacer, and can the cut be made with a Dremel tool? Thanks....Jamie

the stud is for support, I'm not sure it needs it, but it really wasn't all that hard, so why not? I used a 9/16" bit to open up the little hole for the stud. Then i used a dremel to open it up a little more, then hammered the stud in from the back.

If I hadn't used the spacer, because it has a different backsacing, it would have sat crooked. I guess I used a nut for a spacer because it's better than a stack of washers.

You can eventually cut anything with a dremal, but I used a reciprocating saw to cut off the support. [that mild steel frame cut like butter] As for how much to cut off; put your wheel up there and mark the most you can leave and still put on the center cap. You don't want to try to line up those studs in mid-air, least of all in the rain or mud or hanging off a 1000' cliff or whatever.

My license plate is just zip-tied to the arm for now, still using the factory light, but you'd never know it, cause you'd be blingded.

How are you still using the factory light?
