Loaded the z turn on the trailer and had a low tire so I aired it up.
Made it about 2 miles down the road when the thing blew. No spare with me so I was going to unhook the trailer and run home for my spare and jack. Guy in a rat rod stopped and said don't do that I will run you home and you can get the spare. Then we can stop at my house and get my work van and we can change the tire.
Had a big problem getting the jack from under the truck seat while i was working on that he ran back to his house and got a small floor jack.
Returned just as I got the trucks jack loose. the truck is only a 2016 so that screw that held the jack in place should not have been that bad.
Now to see if I can find a resonable replacement tire.
The Dodge 1500 truck jack is under the right front seat. It is held in place by a thumb screw about 2 inches long and probably a metric size clost to 1/4 NFT.
Now if I would have had a flat on the truck I would have sat there for some time as the wife was out working in her flower beds and we are not a family that has our cell phones in our hand every minute.
Also she couldn't hear the home phone out there.
Ya I could have called road service for that stinking screw.
Just see if you can remove your jack.
