Should be a 21mm. Your truck doesn't have a tire iron under the back seat?

Oh, just realized you were talking about lowering the tire. As far as I know, it's usually a flat tip. The tools that operate the jack fit together to lower the tire.

What a terrible design. What idiot decided to place the release crank BEHIND the bumper? The one on my old Ranger was easily accessed from BELOW the bumper. Only vehicle I've ever had to change a flat on.

Most full size pickups have done this since forever. My friend's '68 GMC had it behind the bumper before we swapped a flatbed and solid steel bumper on it.
