The weather was finally dry enough today for me to clean the car and take a few pictures of the wheel carrier:

Hi

I'm almost receiving my 110CCab and I'm looking for that solution .... looks very good! Thumbs Up

If I want to change the tailgate opening to the side instead of opening it down does the wheel carrier works anyway?
How much for the carrier + shipping to Lisbon, Portugal?

Can send me pm if you want.

Thank you
Regards Regards
Joao

Well its now on and looks champion. Had to remove the ladder as it fouled by about 2mm. Some slight refabrication with a hammer may suffice Thumbs Up

Now before you next go to Malaga or Morroco how about making a nice A frame exactly like yours and send me the bill Bow down 59 2.4 110 XS Utility

Some pics of the wheel carrier fitted, no fixings to the body at all, mega solid...i was standing on the wheel last night taking a roof tent off..and im not twiggy Embarassed



Picture of the substantial cross member mounted pivot....NO holes in the body capping required Thumbs Up



Latch mechanism...a joy to use and so simple



Swung away, just undo the latch and let go....damper does the rest..slow smooth opening without even touching it!!!..fantastic piece of kit Thumbs Up



Fantastic piece of kit mate, well impressed Thumbs Up
Guys, these are going to fly off the shelf...get your order in before its retail only Thumbs Up

I think Allisport were selling them at one point, but I can't seem to see it on the website. Perhaps give them a ring? An engine to TDi for!
