SubscriberThe standard bonnet may not be appropriately reinforced for the spare tyre.
Alos what tyre do you plan to have on there ?
A 235/85 on %" rim fitted (just) but anything wider will restrict forward view, heavier will make bonnet VERY heavy to lift up.
I have the kit mounted to mine but no longer carry a spare there. You are welcome to have a look if you are down Redcliffe way some time.
It's not broken. It's "Carbon Neutral".

<span style="color:blue">go and have a look at vlads....and when vlad isnt looking......
quickly swap them over......!!
a better option would be to get a rear wheel carrier on the back chassis...
such as the bearmach ones....
the bonnets designed to carry the weight of the wheel were built stronger and also
had a stronger support rod to hold them open.....</span>

Yes the bonnet stay is bloody heavy duty as is the clip that holds it in place when bonnet closed - a damn site harder to operate than the fancy new ones on the late model Fenders. But it does the job admirably.
I'd agree that option B (ie anything other than the bonnet mount) would be better in 99% of instances.
Just doesn;t look as cool.

you just werent quick enough....
he is onto you now......</span>
My understanding is that when you buy the kit it comes with all the bits required to reinforce the bonnet and the heavy duty prop etc etc.
235/85s do fit but there is a risk of rubbing in my experiences. They work better with the 7.5r16 tyres.

Let us know how you go and what $$$ they expect, as it's something I want to do also (as well as the spare tyre carrier on the back, 2 spares are better than 1! 8) )
