Spare wheel carrier?

[DitchCrawler]

I need to carry an extra spare wheel when i go to Morocco next year, instead of chucking it on a roof rack, i was thinking of fitting a tailgate mounted bracket.

Are they easy to retrofit?
Is it a case of bolt on parts or is it more of a fabrication job?
What parts do I need?

it will mean reinforcing the rear pillar and getting another tailgate for the
reversing lights and number plate

hi m8

don't know if it would work but you could try bolting one to the bonnet, like l*** R***** (off to wash my mouth out now)

I have carried my spare on the roofrack and, apart from lugging the thing up & down, the weight wasn't a prob for the rack

hope this helps
