Underbody spare wheel mechanism

[Ploddit]

Just been having great fun with the little 90° gearbox for the spare wheel raise and lower system.

I strongly advise people to drop it (2 bolts + 1 UJish thing) remove the cover (3 screws) and give it a good grease, after three hours of broken bolt removal its possible to remove my spare again....

Oddly enough the main part of the mechanism with the cable was fine.

Don't suppose you have any photos of it do you?

No, but its on here 51932

Two 8mm attach it to the chassis with 3 X 4mm that fix on the cover, all of mine bar one had to be drilled and tapped.
