Spare Tire Carrier (If So Equipped)
If your RV is equipped with a spare tire, it will either be mounted under the unit (hoist) or
on the rear bumper.
Under the unit (hoist) mounted
The following diagram illustrates the travel position of the spare tire (the spare tire must
contact the brackets as shown).
To secure the spare tire in the travel position:
Put the steel hoist lift support located on the end of the cable through the rim of the tire. The
hoist lift support clips need to seat inside the center hole of the tire rim. The valve stem of
the tire MUST be pointed in the up position or toward the bottom of the trailer.
1. Insert the crank handle into the hole located in the center of the rear “bumper.” Turn the
crank handle to lift the tire to the travel position.
2. Two crisp breaks must be heard and felt to insure proper seating of the tire for travel.
If you have questions regarding your tires, contact the tire manufacturer or Jayco
Customer Service.
When replacing a tire make sure to replace it with a tire of the same size and
specications (refer to the Federal Certication label.)

DO NOT exceed the maximum load capacities of 100 lbs. for the hoist. DO
NOT use air driven guns or impact wrenches to lift the spare tire to the travel
