Disco 1 spare wheel carrier

<< < (2/2)

Disco Matt:
Thanks chaps - I'll be dealing with it when the weather warms up a bit. Bit too cold out there at the moment to take bits off, rub them down, and spray them!  :lol:

lee celtic:
I have 235 85 16's and the spare did hit the bumper so I ground off the bolts the wheel hangs off and made up this ...



three bolts welded to the back go through the origional mount and three on the front is where the wheel now hangs and it's about 1 1/2" higher and stainless... :D

the top bolt on the outside is longer with a hole for a padlock. works well and easy to do..

LiftedDisco:
Land Rover tolerances again...

My 235/85 on standard ES alloys hangs on the back door and just clears the bumper (HD bumper, not a standard LR item..)

As stated above you will need a spare pair of hands when you remove the spare wheel carrier.
