Spare Wheel Carrier Problem

Hi Jacko , Mate I havnt got time to look for it Im heading off to work in a sec but try the search engines on this site as I remember someone saying that they had the same prob I think this week or mid last week and they just made some spacers up but someone eles said they bought them on EBAY ?? I think , but yes I think you are on the right track .

Regards J,B.

Hi Jacko
It's a common problem that happens when you up size your gumboots (tyres).
Solutions:
Change rims to ones that have off centred hub mounting position,
or go to ARB, TJM or any good forby toys supply shop & check out either a Kaymar or ARB rear wheel carrier spacer.
I wouldn't consider the stacked washer scenario as a spacer, unless you want to pay later for the door nuts damage.
The Kaymar or ARB rear wheel carrier spacer are great as they distribute the pressure evenly over a large area as opposed to the stacked washers which focus the pressure quiet severely on to a small area.

Success with your endeavour

Do : do a search , fix this yourself for < $10

Dont : go to ARB etc spend a fortune to do the same thing.
