Steelman Spare Tire Retrieval Tool Kit — 7-Piece Color-Coded 30" Shafts with Wall Bracket

The Steelman 7-piece spare tire retrieval kit is a set of seven 30-inch, color-coded carbon-steel tools that lower and raise cradle-suspended spare tires and fit a wide range of vehicle make-models.

This compact kit gives technicians and DIYers a reliable, durable way to access under-mounted spare tires without guessing which adapter fits. Each tool in the set has a distinct head profile and a 7/8-inch hex tail so you can use a ratchet or wrench to turn it. The included wall bracket and color-code system speed identification and storage, reducing time spent searching for the right tool during roadside or shop work.

What vehicle spares and systems does this kit work with?

The set covers many common cradle-suspended spare arrangements found on domestic and import trucks and SUVs. Heads are tailored to specific maker designs—GM, Ford, Dodge, and a range of imports—so you’ll usually have the correct interface for the winch cable or spindle. It’s not universal, so verify compatibility with your vehicle’s spare-release style before purchase.

• Flat head for late-model S10s, Explorers, Blazers, GMCs, F150s, Expeditions, older Dakotas, and McGuard locks
• Pin head for many import truck systems
• Hex and 12mm square heads for Dodge and late-model GM applications
• Standard and slotted square heads for older Fords and Durango hatch access

How does the color-coded system and wall bracket make work faster?

Each tool end is color marked to match a chart on the storage bracket so you can grab the correct adapter at a glance. Mounting the bracket near your workbench or in a service vehicle keeps tools organized, prevents lost pieces, and shortens retrieval time when responding to a flat tire call.

• Color-coded ends correspond to bracket application chart
• Bracket dimensions fit typical shop walls and service vans
• Hanging storage prevents tool damage and clutter
• Quick visual match reduces diagnostic time

What are the construction and drive features that affect durability and use?

The tools are made from powder-coated carbon steel to resist corrosion and wear in garage and roadside conditions. Each shaft is 30 inches long to reach under-vehicle spares and provides leverage, while the 7/8-inch hex drive lets you use standard ratchets or combination wrenches for controlled turning.

• Powder-coated carbon-steel shafts for corrosion resistance
• 30-inch length for reach and leverage under vehicles
• 7/8-inch hex ends accept standard drive tools for torque control
• Each head profile machined for repeatable fitment

How should I store and carry this kit for mobile service calls?

The included wall bracket is compact and mounts easily in a shop or service van. Color coding and secure hanging keep the set accessible and protected during transport so you can service roadside flats with minimal setup.

• Bracket measures about 10-1/8" wide by 2-1/5" high for compact mounting
• Tools hang securely to prevent rattling in transit
• Easy visibility of each head speeds selection on-site
