That is the exact same system that I have. I see that the pipe before the muffler goes under the cross member as I suspected not through it as Waldron said. I think that you will have to remount your tail pipes if you plan to carry a spare in the stock position. Thanks for the pictures, yours is the first concrete answer that I got.

I haven't measured it to see if the spare will fit, as I don't have the spare or the mount at this time. I will have to get them before I get it on the road.

One thing to note is that I had to add a crossmember under the cab to hang the system from. I also picked up a couple of brackets that I mounted to the existing rear crossmember for another mounting point.

If you need any other pictures just ask.

I have a hanger that goes under the cab that is left over from a 1955 F 100 project years ago. This same hanger was used 48 to 52. I am going to make up another for the other side this AM. You need the width of the frame rails to store the spare tie. I bought my spare tire carrier on ebay. They don't come up often, but they do come up for about $100. Thanks for the pictures, I am now on the right trail.
