Tow hitch spare wheel carrier.

Tony!! Did you see the price of the Op Lock 200 series... $3623 .. I suppose they think it you can afford a new 200 series, they will take another grand from you!! Michael

Yep, enough to make your heart skip a beat or 2...

I have the old Kamar single unit. no rear bumper.
Would love a decent rear bar but at these prices.....

Opps I misread the original post... sorry.

I suppose that a converted bicycle rack might do the job?

Would need to move the number plate as well.

I am hesitant to use a converted bike rack due to excessive weight of the wheel and trye (in comparison to a couple of bikes). I suspect travelling across the Gibb River Rd, Simpson Desert and the like would require a robust carrier.

Michael - the picture above does not show the actual carrier unit. Does it attached into the tow hitch and if so where did you get it from?

Thanks

Adey,
Sorry about the pic, its the only one I could find as my external hard drive has crashed with my whole life on it LOL!! It does go into the square hitch. I made this myself for the Simpson this coming winter and still not 100% finished yet. I have roof bars and a roof tent so i have no room for a second spare up top. I'm not sure if you can buy something like this. Michael

I agree. Dont modify a bike rack, they are made of thin tube with mig welds, it will fall apart with corrugations for sure!! Michael
