What are some of the affordable options for caring the spare tire out there?

Size?

sorry, couldn't resist...

The spare is just a standard size not the same as the ones on the truck

Stand it up in the corner by the tailgate.

If its stockish size, just mount it in a stock type carrier by the tailgate, doesnt take up much space there

From my rusty old 76 without the seat but you get the idea.
Thats a 31" tire.
But my m1009 has a 33" in same place.
And the rear seat.

Your not "affordable" Paul lol

So is that the V style holder that bolts into floor and side? Like this one on eBay?
Is there a generic or reproduction option that’s less expensive?

Yes, that is how the Ebay one mounts up. 2 bolts in the floor and 1 out to the bed rail. I have one I could sell you for less than that. Not sure on the shipping, its light but bulky.
