TF059 - Single Arm Spare Wheel Carrier - Chassis Mounted - Defender 90, 110 & 130 - by Terrafirma

Originally Land Rover mounted the spare wheel on the bonnet of early vehicles.

This was fine on a Series III with skinny tyres but as wheel and tyre options began to increase the logical choice was to put it on the back door. Ever since then Land Rover owners have suffered with rattling, cracked and broken rear doors, the larger the wheel & tyre and the rougher the conditions the worse the situation.

The TF059 spare wheel carrier is purely chassis mounted and is ideal for all Classic Defender models including pickups and station wagons where opening the spare wheel carrier independently of the rear door or tailgate is preferred. The single arm carrier is beautifully engineered and is held closed with a clever over centre lockable lever arrangement and is assisted open with a gas strut which is essential on a side slope and to prevent to carrier closing under its own weight and for comfortable access to pickups.

Finished in a heavy satin black powder coating and are supplied with fitting kits and comprehensive instructions.
