Hello All

What is the correct diameter or size of the holes on the passenger side of an M38, behind the wheel well, where the spare tire would be mounted if not on the tailgate? In other words, where the spare tire would be mounted if it was a CJ3a.

Thank you

That was me asking the same thing going on a year ago now.

Do yourself a favor and use a step drill bit. It will not dance around the hole like a regular drill bit in a hole that size.
