if a raptor can fit a 35inch spare you would think your trucks would. it's the same frame.

it probably could. the stuff can melt the rubber of tires so im sure it could damage sensors. not many vehicle had sensors on them back when i did that kind of work.

Patching a 35" tire is no different than patching any other tire using tire plugs as long as it is not a sidewall puncture/tear. Of course having a full size spare is best and many keep over sized spare in bed. Also I found that the OEM jack can handle 35" anything bigger requires bigger jack.

i think the guy was confused with the term patching instead of plugging

Go with E-rated tires so you are less likely to get a flat.

I have AAA, so I can call them if I need to. But you can put a regular size spare in the front. Just don't use 4WD.

My dual exhaust is right up against my stock spare.

Well I use both terms for the same thing so I am prolly confused too lol

Yeah thats a common setup either side of trailer hitch. Unless you want to go through a big headache, a patch/plug kit as mentioned or spare in bed is way to go. I plan to do side exhaust since I have had rear tips get punched in when 4x4ing in tight spots.

Add a larger tire for the spare I had plenty of space the tire can move forward and the guard from the exhaust can be pushed over from more clearance. Get a F250 jack or a block to use your current jack and you will be good to go.

I think I asked but does Anyone know the diameter of my stock XLT spare? It's a 2013

You could always just read the tire and find out. I believe on my '07 its an 18" but I'm not sure and it could be different.
