SOLD ISO Aftermarket tire rack

[JGO]

City: San jose

Someone has to have a discarded tire rack laying around that looks like it fits on this truck! Trying to keep this period correct so if I can find a rack from the old days that fits I’d love to have it!

Also, a long shot but the artwork on this was signed by a “Dean” it looks like in 1973. Truck is out of Los Angeles area/Ontario, it would be really cool if Dean turned out to be a known artist! Any info appreciated!

Can't help you on the carrier, however from another 73 Explorer Orange owner - congrats! Love the artwork as well.

Thanks, was able to confirm artwork was from Dean Jeffries, quite a thrill!

I have an original tire rack and an aftermarket one. I am not at home now to take pics but if I remember the after market one does fit on those mounts, the original will but you will need the lock mechanism which bolts onto the back where the chrome is gap is. I think I might have those parts also. I will look when I get home later tomorrow.
