    Front Runner gas bottle holder measurement ??

    I'm hoping someone on here has a Front Runner gas bottle holder on their Defender and can help me with a measurement. I want to know whether the holder will be compatible with my dual wheel carrier, so need to know if there's enough clearance.
    A measurement from the top of the lower body to the underside of the gas bottle support would be great.
    Any help appreciated.

    Cheers, Murray

    Seeing as you've used my D90 as the model for the measurement, give me a few minutes and I'll go out and measure it for you.

    Okay, the measurement you have asked for is 31cm. Another point that may be useful is that the rack supports arms, that go up on a slight angle to the gas bottle base, are 6cm out from the body.

    Thanks John, that should be enough for me to go on. The 6cm wont be a problem, but I need to know whether the tyre will clear the rack.
    Thanks for the pic too

    I just went and measured it up. The rack will easily clear my 33" tyre, so all is good.

    The design may have changed a little over time, as the required measurement on mine is 30 cm. The clearance with my 235/85 spare on original mounting is 5 cm.
