On my old 1st gen tundra, I had an extra arm that only went to the rear of the tire that I could attach a socket wrench to. It was a PITA but worked. I never got a flat so, never had to do it for real...

so after I lift camper and put tail gate back on will i be able to access the hole to remove my spare tire??? if not, what did you do to get at your spare????? thanks
=============================================================
I think you asking if you put the tailgate back on after installing a hawk will you be able to lower your spare tire?
What year Tundra?
On my '05 Tundra / '16 Hawk it would not be a problem; but wait, you mean having the tailgate in the down position all the time since the Hawk extends beyond the bed?....not getting into why the very heavy tailgate is needed or wanted ....

That and depending on year, if the camper is sticking past the tailgate, i don’t think you’d be able to get the tailgate back on if you had taken it off prior to camper Install
My 2014 tailgate has to be moved to about a 45 to slide on and off

Perhaps...but if you lift the Hawk and install the tailgate in the down position and then lower the Hawk into the bed....hell, I don't know...never considered using the tailgate on Tundra for a variety of reason...but that is just me.
Ps...What is a "2019 Hawk Rollover"? Half the tailgate? Man the beds must have really gotten shorter!

i believe the roolover bed is the model of hawk!!! with tailgate down an hawk on it the hawks last 14 inches will sit on tailgate!!m
Dennis,
Is this the Tundra you have? "2019 Toyota Tundra the TRD Pro-Crew max with a 5.5' bed". If so, that is one short bed and 14" onto the tailgate is significant...
