Spare Wheel Roller - p38arover?

**goingbush** · 17th February 2015, 04:17 PM

There was a recent thread with a photo of a roller used to position a spare wheel and locate it on the studs. I think it was p38arover. I'm trying to find such a device but unable to come up with a searchable device name.

Yes, I have one. I bought it from Repco.

See my reply to you

Thanks, thats the one. Might be worth a try , I need to lift the spare a few inches and rotate it onto the studs when the carrier is lowered. The wheel / tyre combo is 55kg.

Lay a tyre iron under the centre line of the hub, with the end about level with the rear of the hub, roll the tyre and rim in close to the hub and on top of the tyre iron, lift outside end of tyre iron and wheel will slide straight onto hub. Use the tyre iron to rotate rim to align with the studs.
$30 for a good tyre iron and can be stored easily and has a thousand and one other uses.
I have seen my mate's 11 year old kid change 11.00x22 truck tyres and rims, I wouldn't like to be pushing that roller thing around on the edge of a dirt road, Regards Frank.

Not sure that will work Frank as the wheel has to be located onto a swingarm that moves about like a pendulum but will give it a try,
