Hope that made some sense.
That makes a lot..I could make that work...would that be to much pressure on back seat???? I don't wanna lay my seat down to run it on side..got 2 kiddos...

the more sturdy and tight the straps/ropes you have securing the wheel, the less weight your seat will have to have on it from the tire. its all about getting it positioned and tightened just right to make it work well. Im sure after an hour making adjustments you will get it perfect! pretty soon my spare will be in the bed of my 2 door..i have plenty of ways i plan on securing it. but then again, i dont need the back seat.

Or maybe somehow mounting a 3/4pm steel plate vertically and then securing the wheel to it with bolts and lug nuts. The plate would be secured all the way to the frame through the floor.
