I'm after something/anything spare wheel wise - what you got? I already have holes drilled in the front where i'm guessing the p/o had a wheel carrier, however I don't really want to fit one there but might do if the worst comes to the worst. So i'm after either. A. a shallow front wheel carrier (I've got a deep one which the holes don't line up on/ I don't like.) B. a devon drop down one for the rear. C. a landmark one that you have hidden in your shed. D. a nice Danbury one for £5 And before anyone says carry it inside and throw it under when camping - we do, but the stuff inside and 2 hounds are getting squished and the carried goods list will only get longer ......... sheeeeeesh!
I've got a front carrier you can have for nowt but I've no idea whether its a deep or shallow one, can get it at lunchtime and have a look?
the deep one I have is about 6 inches - the narrow one is about 2, it lets the wheel sit facing backwards or forwards if you get me.
moley76 had one which he gave to poptop2 which i'm unsure if he still has/needs - i'm open to ideas really I have shown interest in the ones GingersVW are making but as they are not mass produced they're a tad expensive at the moment - mrs roo wants me to put it on the roof rack but i'm not keen.
As a landrover fan ricky, you may know folk who could get measurements for some of the landy swing out ones? coz theres one that looks a little like the landmark one and one that looks a like the danbury, i've often wondered how much modding they need to fit.
I know about the landy ones - I had one for £99 when I had a landy, I know us long servers have done wheel carriers to death - to be honest i'm looking for a quick easy cheap fix hence my posting - i'm hoping the gingers ones come cheaper in the long term.
I bought one off fleabay a while back but have decided not to fit, it looks like the JK one (see link)... http://www.justkampers.com/spare-wheel-mount-for-vw-t2-1972-1979.html If its any good to you rickyrooo1 its yours for £FREE if you can collect as I really can't be doing with trying to wrap it up and post it anywhere as its heavy & a funny shape...
