The Masai Large Extra Heavy Duty Defender Spare Wheel Carrier fixes to the chassis to minimise rear door hinge strain.

Other benefits of this Masai Large Extra Heavy Duty Defender Spare Wheel Carrier include an offset position to maximise access to towing and the rear door. You will also benefit from an increased rear view over centre mounted spare wheel carriers.

NOTE: There is a indentation on the back of the lower arm of the spare wheel carrier, this is there to avoid the bottom hinge of the rear door.

  • Special hinged bushes with grease nipples to provide long-life and serviceable parts.

Strengthening Kit (Pre 2002 Rear Doors ONLY)

We would recommend you purchase this as an optional extra as the Pre 2002 land rover rear doors are "single skin" meaning they have very little strength in them to carry a spare wheel on them along with our carrier. Our strengthening kit bolts to the inside of the door to add needed strength to the door to avoid

Fitting to Series 3 Models

1. You will need to drill just one hole in the rear crossmember for the bottom hinge of the SWC. (See last photo in thumbnails for reference)

2. A longer bolt will be needed for this hole created.

3. Then shim the the lower hinge with 2 Grade 8 washers to fill the gap between the hinge and the crossmember.

Our Heavy-duty Spare Wheel Carrier can be fitted to vehicles with oversized wheels:
