THE CABLE HOLDING THE SPARE TIRE IN PLACE BROKE. THE SPARE FELL OF THE TRUCK, THE TIRE WEIGHTS CLOSE TO 90 TO 100 LBS, WHILE TRAVELING AROUND 60 MPH. I WAS FLAGGED BY A MOTORIST WHO WAS BEHIND ME AT THE TIME. HE STATED THE TIRE CAME OFF MY AND BOUNCED INTO THE OTHER OPPOSING LANE. A CAR HAD TO USE THE SHOULDER AND DITCH TO AVOID THE FULL SIZE SPARE TIRE. BY THE TIME I FOUND A PLACE TO TURN AROUND AND GO BACK TO THE APROX LOCATION I DID NOT FIND THE SPARE. THE CABLE HOLDING THE TIRE BROKE ABOUT 6 INCHES BELOW THE WINCH. BY THE NUMBER REPLACEMENT WINCHES BEING SOLD LOST TIRE REPORTS ITS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE AN INJURY. THE CABLE WILL NOT BREAK WHILE THE TRUCK IS STANDING STILL. I HAVE REMOVED THE WINCH FROM MY TRUCK AND AM SAVING IT. *JS
