Defender (Puma) Spare wheel carrier

**dmdigital** · 14th April 2009, 04:51 PM

Bearmach should be about $480. The Scorpion Racing one (if still available - I think they have completely folded now) is basically the same unit, but with a stand for a highlift and the SR price surcharge. There is also an excelent one from Mantec, but don't know if anyone in Australia imports them.

I need to decide on which one this week...mmmmmmm....

Thanks again.

Different perspective -
I carry 2wheelers also and a swingway carrier (any of them) wont let me utilise the current bike carrier in the towbar.
I figure for the amount of time i will be travelling over corregations (my normal offroading isnt to hard for the standard spare wheel carrier -

yet )

I'll throw the spare on the roof with a 2nd spare when outback.
Whilst I think the carrier is a good idea - if you use the 110 like me and carry bikes - be aware you may need to modify your carrier system.

Otherwise call Stu at Rovacraft in FT/Gulley... he can help - or like has been suggested Ritters or LRA in Thomastown.

Thanks Rugrat! I have spoken to Rovacrat in FT Gully and they have quoted me on the Scorpian Racing setup.
