I really like the look of that set up. I am still due a full size spare from the dealer, though I am losing the will to care (I can't remember the last time I actually used a spare). It looks like you have the deck on the lower setting with the spare in place and the jack located off to the left in the foam? I tried to flip my mini spare but had issues figuring out how to put the jack in without it rattling around. I hadn't considered your location, but might have to give it another go now. Would be nice to be able to utilize all that space in the middle of the spare.Pretty pleased with how this turned out

I pulled out the foam inserts and turned my full sized tire over. I have tons of stuff stored in that space now, including a chopped down and disassembled Hi-Lift jack. Use cloth to wrap your jack so it doesn't rattle.

I want to do the same thing with my wife's BB. When it needs tires I am going to add a full-size spare tire, since I already have a matching rim.
I have 42000 points of which I won't use considering I'm not interested in any Ford accessories and have two years free maintenance from Ford. I just may go with a black generic Ford rim and same size Michelin tire.
Edit
Just called my dealer and ford doesn't have a steel wheel to match the BS. I'd have to buy a wheel somewhere and then use my points for a tire.

The torque wrench can serve as a weapon as well, provided the crook would give you time to retrieve it.
Nice clean setup.

I'm going to go with a full size spare too. Assuming an 18" full size spare would fit.
