Fiat Ducato spare wheel carrier for under £5

Undermount spare wheel carrier for Ducato, Jumper, Boxer and Promaster. Made out of steel plates, long M12 bolt , 4 self taping bolts and two M12 nuts. Using car jack to lift the wheel. Simple, lightweight and functional. I made this on my conversion in 2014 and it works well.

Good idea , but maybe you should have drilled hole in the bar a below the nuts so you can put a pin through it so it would never undone completely while travelling.

I agree, also, it would be easy enough to do. I just used two nuts, and locked them in against each either

Old video but can I ask why you chose a long axel instead of a short one and mounting the wheel the other way (upside down from what you did)?

[@mrfxr1695]

Hi Robert, Two reasons First and upmost, it would not collect water in the wheel rim this way, eliminating rust Second, it felt easier to feed washers and nuts onto it Cheers 👍

Looks nice but I can't see how you get the wheel up with just a jack (seems to me you'd need at least three to level it). Also, do you need to get under the car to fasten the nuts? I think I'd end up with the wheel in my face... I'm just hesitating whether to order the original crap, which costs a quarter of my month's salary.

Hi, I use 3 ton floor jack. I place the Jack under the van and than wheel on to of it with bit of wood between them (to protect the wheel from scratching). The wheel rises up unevenly, but once it touches the underside of the van it starts to level out. With a bit of guiding it slides over the bolt. Than finger tight nut with the plate and you can remove the Jack. Tighten up with the spanner . I have it under my van now for five years, and I used it couple of times on the road, no problems at all. Kind regards, Sinisa

I realize it's kind of off topic but do anybody know a good site to watch newly released tv shows online ?

Good afternoon, what is the distance of the bolt? I have to carry the wheel in the van, I want to put it in its place

[@mrfxr1695]

Hi, the length of the bolt is about 10" (250mm) All the best, Sinisa
