if you really want to run a full size spare, you need a rear bar + swing away tyre carrier. I made this fairly cheaply including reverse and LED taillights. Simple yet effective design. This easily hold my 33x12.5 swamper as spare.

The question is though ... why run a full size spare? Use the tallest, skinniest, lightest tyre you can find for a stock rim, then if you blow a tyre you just swap the spare onto a front wheel and unlock the hubs if you're locked front - that'll be more than enough to get you back to civilisation.
Or if you always go out with mates (which is a pretty darn good idea) just carry a can of tyre goo, a tyre lever, some tyre plugs and a half decent air compressor. That'll get you out of pretty much any situation except a staked sidewall.
Beats having 30-40kg of spare hanging off the absolute rearmost point of an already tippy SWB car. You'll notice the difference on climbs.....

Pretty much its made from 3mm 50x75mm RHS. Cut at 45 degrees twice on both corners to make the 90 degree angle. then its a simple bracket bolted to the chassis and welded to the bar. This bracket was made from 10mm plate. This was made alot easier as its a LWB so there is no crossmember at the rearmost point. Its not a simple job and to make it look good there are many things to consider and its hard to get it right. Good luck.hooki wrote:'Spike_Sierra' do you have any close up pics of the swing away joint and how you have attatched it to the chassis? I'm looking at making one soon and would like to get an idea about where to start.

No kids....that i know of... Just wanted the room inside for camping gear, waeco etc. The bar is pretty light for what it is, probably 10 or so kilo's + rear tyre weight.86slowsierra wrote:any idea of the extra wight your carrying there spike? i figure you would have kids and need the lwb space otherwise it would be bolted to the tray.

nothing a little weld cant fix
Zuk panels thickness inc the rear door and associated 'strengthening' around the hinge area is pretty thin. Doesnt take much weight to start tearing it to pieces.
it's good for about 9 months of wheelingwideaz wrote:it worked great for a few trips then after a while it started to crack so i dont recommend a 33inch tyre on the back door lol
