Get the Best Priced Ford F250 Super Duty Spare Tire Hoist

On the OEM unit, the mounting holes were threaded. On your replacement unit, they are not threaded and the holes were not large enough for the OEM bolts to pass throuh, however the holes were large enough to accolade the correct size threading tap. After cutting in the threads with the appropriate tap, the OEM bolts did work and the replacement unit, otherwise, works and form and fit work nicely.

Hoist works fine but didn't fit exactly, had to bend tabs out of the way to make the mounting holes line up. So on my truck it wasn't an exact OE fit.

Unit is taller than the original by one inch. Will have to modify bumper or other parts of vehicle. Not sure it will work even then. Threaded the bolt holes but soft metal means I will put nuts on the bolts. Not sure what to think.

So over all this order was sweet! Easy to find. Easy to order. Arrived quickly. However the part was not a direct replacement. Had to "modify" the part for correct fit.

This part was sold as a direct OEM replacement and fit perfectly. Only problem was I could not reuse the original bolts due to no threads in the welded bosses. Through bolts solved the problem and it works flawlessly.

Received part Friday afternoon. took less than a 1/2 hour to remove old part and install new. everything fit right in. works just like the original.
