HELP with a spare tire mount

hey guys i had bought an nfab rapid strap spare tire mount and i had the rear brackets mounted to the middle set of bed bolts (as shown in the first pic below) which worked great, but as i was about to drill the holes to mount the top bracket (second pic) i noticed there is a support standing in my way on the underside of the bed. (this is in the third pic below). anyone have a solution for this or another spare tire mount i could get? IMG_1671.jpgIMG_1672.jpgIMG_1673.jpg

It looks like the “beam” (black line) isn’t right where your potential hole was going to be. Drill a little closer to the bed wall (white arrow)? What about making the hole that’s there a little bigger and using it? (Red arrow) 3A72C8B1-0923-47C2-88E7-49923488D73B.jpeg
