mines a bit dodgy due to the wheel carrier....as anyone close by got one for sale....been on ebay but all too far etc....will be putting the wheel back on but prefer an unwheeled version etc

I have been looking for one for a while. Looking on ebay a lot of them seemed to come from up your way,it may be worth waiting a while to see what else comes up. I have bought a brand new never been fitted unglased one for £35.00 and then fitted a heated glass. Well pleased with the result.

The secret is to strengthen em before they start to go. and not just wait till it's too late.

yeh, lol that was the plan. would puttin a plate on the back help? spread the load on the door panel? and/or weld some struts to the main door bars?

It has a plate already. that comes with it. the problem is the weight of the wheel levers the carrier down and cracks the vertical bars. welding an angle iron or U channel over the vertical bars stops them from bending and then cracking.

I'd invest in a swing away wheel carrier. When I got me III it had the wheel mounted on the rear door. With a 235/85 R16 spare I cun't git a key into the door lock!

Yer asking a lot of two door hinges an orl.

Will have to take a good look at it, its got 7.50R16's on, and that'll bugger it up rotten

7.50-16's is standard fitment It'll fit fine.

iannotts · Jun 22, 2008

put another door hinge on it in the middle like the defenders have, you'll be fine

clamp it to the back of the rear bulkhead (the one behind the seats) - theres a standard orginal brackety thing designed for the task
