Spare tire J hooks

[enio45]

I learned something today that for 69 there are 3 types of J hooks as per the assembly manual.

1 - coupe with standard spare
1 - convert with standard spare\
1 - spacesaver convert

anyone have a convert standard spare one that can provide a measurement of the overall length and the length of the treaded area, as well - same request for the spacesaver spare one.

I believe that the orig coupe J hooks measure 9 1/4 in length and about 3 inches of thread and was black phosphate - the other 2 I would like to know the same info if possible.

thanks guys for any help

993 was listed as 9 1/2 over in a thread at TeamCamaro think that is coupe.

yea, obviously size matters :-)

im installing a space saver spare in a convert and discovered that the standard coupe (9.25 or 9.5 inch ) j-hook is too long,,,,not enough threads to tighen the base plate!
