Bonnet spare wheel carrier
L90OOK:
Personally I love the spare wheel on the bonnet. Both my 90 & 110 have them on. Purely for the fact that I tow stuff regularly & can't get to the towbar with the wheels on the back door :roll: :evil:
I may fit a carrier to a disco bonnet I have just to see how it looks :afro:
Range Rover Blues:
I'd thought of doing it too, but I think the weight precludes it, the bonnet won't hold it and the bonnet prop certainly won't.
muddyjames:
What if one was too put gas struts in to help lift the bonnet up say from a Chinckwiichento (and I know that is spelt very poorly!!!)
that would take the load off the bonnet support and arms to lift it!
I quiet fancy doing this anyway, but thats another thread! :D

ewwwwwwwwww lol noooooo

Theres a thread running about Camel trophy Discos - I would have thought that if it was practical to do, then those would have been the folk to do it. I reckon its a none starter due to the bonnet's strength and visibility over the thing once fitted. The bonnet of my 300TDi is close to the engine and I reckon the weight of one of my WOLF rims and BFG's on it and I'd be snapping injector pipes like its going out of fashion - the very reason why Mil WOLF don't have the wheel on the bonnet any longer.......
If you want/need to move the wheel that badly, why not go for a front bumper/bull-bar mount like on SNATCH?.........
Besides, it'll just look odd.
