too bigger tyre for my wheel carrier

(1/4) > >>

mentalmoshio sophs V8i:
ive just found my insa special trak 265 wont fit on the wheel carrier  :doh: i was wondering would it be worth making raised nut plate to solve the problem

how ever i do have a wizard jack mount on there and was wondering un doing the nut on it every time the mud tyres go on roughly every 6 weeks . would wear the threads out.

i also plan to weld the jack holder to the carrier. ( the twin nut idea was not on there enough for my liking plus i dont want another claim on the insurance  :doh: )

would it be better to use a 90/110 wheel carrier on the roofrack or disco one .

i did think about a d44 one but  the price puts me off

tell me what u think

Paul:
If it's just to give you more room from the bottom of the tyre to the bumper... you can remove the carrier, move it up and re-drill it  ;)

mentalmoshio sophs V8i:
its not in the best state high up on the mounts paul soz forgot to mention that bit

oh what bolt size are they i was thinking theywere about m16

Paul:
Time to start saving for a D44 one then  :)

Disco Matt:
My Wizardbilt jack carrier only goes on when I'm out laning, the rest of the time the back part is left on with the wheel cover over the top and the front part is in the boot. It doesn't seem to be damaging the threads so far.
