tiagoc Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 What options do we have for rear wheel carriers in soft-tops? The rear door is a "picnic-table", so the carrier must be swing-away. I know that Britpart and Mantec have some, but has anyone built a stronger carrier? I saw a Kaymar look-a-like today in a Defender, and I like their heavy-duty look, but don't like their price tag...

Spongie Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Similar problem I'm having with my 101" but I've got the disadvantage of having 315/75 R16s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spongie Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 looks a bit technical and heavy! Don't think my mrs would be wanting to operate that at next to 4'0" lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiagoc Posted January 10, 2013 Author Share Posted January 10, 2013 Thanks for the link. I like the rollover option and had already thought about it, but not like the one in the picture. I don't seem to find exactly what I need, so I guess the DIY option will win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
