Hi Panama2008. If its any consolation after having my 1991 4runner ( V6 model) converted to LPG , I had no where to store my spare wheel except on the rear floor- which was a nuisance in itself. I found a 4x4 magazine with a whole list of aftermarket spare wheel carriers for the V6 4Runner from Gear to go Anywhere. If my memory serves me right they are in South Australia or
Adelaide. I paid $740 + Freight- to
Perth and manged to fit it myslef - time consuming but never the less I got it all sorted out over a few beers and some choice language, when no one was around, and have never been happier. Its freed up the interior space and fits nicely behind the left side of the rear window. Also they supply a number plate bracket, so that you can move the number plate over to the right so that the view of the plate is not obstructed. The only thing missing is that the wheel and number plates covers the rear reversing lights but am going to change that by fitting the 96 SSR V6 tail light assembly so that I can connect the reversing lights through the tail light cluster
By the way I have a tow bar on my vehicle and it fitted perfectly. All I had to do was to remove the left rear bumper bracket that bolts from the bumper to the chasis. All those extras are included in the kit
