Waiting on Foremost Ins guy to come change flat near Devils Tower, I might be able to change it but how in the heck do you get the spare off from under the box at the front of the trailer?

@CCC I believe you use the stabilizer "wrench" to lower the spare tire. Inside the front tub is a nut that connects to a cable/winch system that when turned lowers the tire. We have a 2022 320S (non Boondock) and is how ours is put together.

On a TaB400, the spare tire lowering wrench fitting is on the passenger side of the tongue between the box and the trailer’s front, under the frame.

Thanks, I remembered just I posted this in a panic. For some reason though, the “craftsmen”” at NuCamp put it so close to the front of the tub that the lowering wrench would not fully turn without triple effort and time. One thing I learned is the scissors type jack is awful, get a bottle jack, worked like a charm, first thing I got after I got the tire fixed a try a great tire shop in Belle Fourch ND. Fellow camper helped me out.2022 T@B 320 S Boondock "UGA", Jeep Gladiator Overland

Trying to lever it under the camper was fruitless, the bottle jack was quick and snnoth.2022 T@B 320 S Boondock "UGA", Jeep Gladiator Overland

Does the 2020 T@B S Boondock have same spare tire lowering system as above ?
Info on size and model of bottle jack would be helpful. ( Blocks ? )

@CCC Next time try pulling the flat tire up on some leveling pads to get the room for the jack to fit.
