Yes, it was on the spare tire mount...if only the operators and QM stuff realized it. After about 1994, when the Iltis trailer came out, the adapters were redundant and should have been removed from the checklist. Instead, operators and QM staff would re-order it as deficient again and again and again. When it would come in, they would realize they already had it, and throw it away. A year later, a new driver/QM staff and it would happen again. and again.....

I did see the shorter (?) bolts for the original german method of bolting on the spare start showing up in the supply system.. Not sure if that was intentional or just a slip-up.
