Redrum123 Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 I'm going to be taking a 3-4 month trip traveling around the United states here in a couple months and would like to have a spare to take with me. If possible does anyone have a link to where one can purchase the rims/wheels? Also are the wheels from the front and back/inner and outer different? Thanks for the help guys. Andrew.

It depends, if your rear end has been replaced (originally single wheels) most likely they are different than the front they will only have 5 bolt holes however all 4 rear ones will be the same. With the rears you can get by with 3 tires in a pinch until you can get somewhere for repairs but you can't put it on the front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totem Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 As Maineah said , you will need 2 spares unless you spend over $300 on a set of wheel adapters for the hub whilst dealing with an angry guy. if you are lucky and have 6 lug nuts on front and back I would just try www.ebay.com for the fastest easiest picture proof way to see what you know you need.

This makes it sound like you have 6 lug rims up front as well as the rear (1987 or newer). If this is the case, they will all interchange. You'll be looking for a 3 hand-hole rim as pictured below for your spare. I'd suggest you check http://www.car-part.com/ along your route. Many people (including junkyards) won't know about the duallie rims and will think you're looking for a 6-lug rim from a Toyota 4x4. These will NOT work.

Totem Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 In this case I still think ebay is superior because they will have a picture. Car- Part burned me on a wheel they said was a "1 ton duallie" but had 5 lugs... pictures in this case are worth a 1000 words..

My thoughts were to see if there was a yard along the route with them showing to be available so that there wouldn't be any shipping cost and the wheel could be checked before buying.

Totem Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 I do yield to putting hands on a part and not paying shipping. always the ultimate best outcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redrum123 Posted April 19, 2018 Author Share Posted April 19, 2018 They are in fact the 6 lug Rims.... It's a 1991. The fronts and rears will interchange your saying? I greatly appreciate the help everyone! What model of truck aside from the campers can these be pulled off of? ALSO... If anyone knows where to find one I'd greatly appreciate it I looked on Car-Part.com and couldn't find anything. Thank you. Andrew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek up North Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 The only donors will have been built on the '1-Ton Dual Rear Wheel' Cab & Chassis. Motorhome, cube trucks (U-Haul), flat beds, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's a 91 then yes they are all the same it may look different to you on the front because it does not face the same way the outside rear wheel does on the back they can be mounted either direction on the rear, one faces in the other one faces out.

Totem Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 in short you are lucky! only need one spare wheel. a visit to a wreck yard as Derek mentioned would be fastest cheapest route to getting a wheel; ebay would be the easiest and slightly more expensive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redrum123 Posted May 13, 2018 Author Share Posted May 13, 2018 I still can't come across one! If anyone has a source for one it would be greatly appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjrbus Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 You can carry a tire and a couple tools. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRAS1A6eEV0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linda s Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 In certain areas of the country they are very hard to find. You are planning to take a trip though. Your best bet is to have your extra tire and look for the wheel in your travels. Check car-part along the way your going. If bad luck should happen and you do get a flat you can drive safely with one wheel on a side in the back far enough to get to a service station. There's your spare. Just drive slow. I've done it several times Linda S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
406glaciergirls Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 I have a spare 6 lug dually 14 in. We have multiple 1 ton older toyota's trucks/campers. This is the real deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
