Well after getting sick of that stupid piece of tin of a std rear bar getting crumpled all the time and the weight of the spare tire and the jerry, can-opening my back door a solution was finaily made.

Complete tire/jerry swing away carrier, with narva ADR approved L.E.D tail lights (Altezza style) :cool:

The design uses a twin bar system, to try and elimate most of the wobble associated with many homemade carriers Ive seen. Sides are 6mm steel plates welded to the first bar. Should last alot longer than the std garbage.

Now this is the 'tounge & catch' system used when the bar is completely closed to stop alot of the wobble thru the second bar.

Well now i need a tank protector, looks very vunerable all by its self.
Cheers Dan
