Swing Away Spare Wheel Carrier

Post by Oilline »

Can anybody tell be how the rear pillar is re-enforced to take a swing away spare wheel carrier?
Does the inner panel need cutting out to allow access to the inside of the pillar ?
Also who supplies the wheel carriers?

It isn't. You use spreader plates

Ian @ Syncronutz 01501 829 400 or email ian@campernutz.com I think he is waiting for more to come in just now. His supplier is messing him about a bit just now.
