Scout Trailer Kit
Part#87400/87400-01
22. Install spare tire mount onto tongue. Install all M10 bolts before tightening , use flat washers and
lock washers. The large washer will be used on the underside of the tongue. Opening will face
towards the passenger side of the trailer. Install spare tire into tire mount and secure with tire tie
downs. There are two tire tie down straps, one around the circumference and one over the top. Its
easiest to install the over the top strap first. The over the top strap has three different tie down
points, you will use the one on the front of the tire mount. In the rear( near trailer body) you may
use the tie down point on the tire mount behind the tire or you may use the eyebolt on top of the
trailer body. For large tires and sever off-road use it is recommended to use the eyebolt. There will
be excess strap once straps are tightened. You may choose to trim excess. Take in consideration of
possible bigger tires in the future will need a longer strap, cut accordingly. Make sure to seal the
ends of the strap using a flame, this will prevent fraying of the strap. Fig 16-21 torque these bolts to
25 ft/lb.
