A pickup truck spare tire (13) is mounted on a hoist (15) having a hoist shaft (21), accessible through an opening (25) in the rear channel or rear bumper (27). A winch tube cover (33) is placed over the hoist shaft (21) to allow access to the hoist shaft (21) only through the winch tube cover (33). An insert (47) is mounted in the rearward end (37) of the winch tube cover (33) and extends through the opening (25) in the rear bumper (27). An open bore through the insert (47) provides access to the hoist shaft (21). A lock (71) is temporarily attached to the insert (47) to prevent access to the hoist shaft (21) through the insert (47).
