200 series Kaymay tyre carrier on a 100 series

[smk98]

Having a 170L sub tank installed, i no longer had any room for a spare and cannot afford a rear bar with swing outs. Always liked how the Kaymar made the 200 series tyre carriers hide in the bumper, so found one at a wreckers and got to work on modifying it to suit. Made a bracket between the chassis and the stub axle. Need to tidy up a few of the edges and install some indicator and brake lights into the bumper.

Overall is a good option for anyone who wants a swing away tyre carrier and cant get their hands on the original kaymar option.

I like how compact that is. You won't be bothered about the tail light?

I recommend enclosing the lower back half of the spare tire. Great for carrying a snatch strap, oil, fluids, etc.

IMO sits perfectly, get the slightest bit of poke but not so much it throws mud down the side of your car.
