2017 Toyota Tacoma Spare Tire Power Winch Hoist

[Perseus2017]

Does such an accessory exist?

Each month, I check my spare tie pressure, and each month,
I get tired of manually cranking down the spare because the damn value stem points upward, toward the bed, instead of downward, like it does on my Dodge Ram. (And, yes, a tried an, expensive, "high quality" valve extender, and all that did was let the air out!) A small, power winch hoist, to do the lowering/raising for me, at the press of a button, would be REALLY nice!

Has anyone heard of this kind of accessory? (I searched the Internet and couldn't find anything. Maybe I'm just dreaming.)

I flipped the spare so the valve stem faces down.

OK. Makes sense. I actually thought of that but wasn’t sure you could mount it upside down. The owner’s manual advises against it. (But who reads, let alone pays attention, to the manual anyway?).

Thanks

You mounted the spare tire on your front bumper?

I took the spare tire off @OR17TRD’s truck and store it in my truck bed. He just doesn’t know it yet. He’ll find out when he gets a flat. Lol.
