Check Your Spare Tire Before You Need It
2003 2955RL - Needing to replace one of my tires due to the axle problem being discussed on this forum, I dropped my spare for the first time and found that it would not fit. It wouldn't fit because the 5ver rims are 6-bolt and the spare was 8-bolt - sure glad I didn't find out somewhere other than at home.
Called the dealer - Chief's RV in Pasco, WA - and they will replace it under warranty even though my RV is 13 months old and out of warranty. Keystone came through.
So now I have a new pre-buy checklist item to check the spare thoroughly. If you haven't already, I recommend that you check the bolt pattern on your spare.
