I'm a stonemason and I was tired of having my bucket of hammers, chisels, bars, etc... fall over and spill out in the back of my jeep, and since my spare tire is on my roof rack I drilled a hole in the 5 gal. bucket and mounted it to the spare tire mount. no more spilled tools!!

thanks, I love it. I think I'm going to hunt for a square bucket next. it'll stop the little bit of wobble it has now.

edit:I used a 15/16" deep well 1/2dr socket for the spacer.
