How do you remove spare tire on 2003 Chevy silverado?
I have a 2005 Silverado that I’m installing a hitch on. I tried lowering the tire using the crank provided, and it only dropped a few inches. After a few tries, and a few choice words, I broke down and looked at the manual. Check out your owners manual for a description on how to remove your tire. I finally used my air ratchet, and unbolted the $@#!# thing, and removed the whole assembly, and threw it in the back of my truck. I may try some WD-40, or some other penetrating oil to free it up. I really don’t want a spare tire sliding around in my truck bed.
