Terrafirma Defender swing away spare wheel carrier suitable for 90 and 110 Station Wagons and Hard Tops. Suits all models from 1985 - 2016.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eContrary to Land Rover’s early trend with the Discovery of mounting the spare wheel on the rear door, the Discovery 3 \u0026amp; 4 was built with its spare wheel underneath the rear of the car. This caused uproar with Land Rover and Discovery fans as externally mounted spare wheels on Land Rovers have been a recognisable feature for decades. The prospect of having to wrestle the heavy spare wheel out from underneath a stuck Land Rover with a flat tyre filled buyers with dread, it also limited the size of the tyres that could be fitted due to the specific size space.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe Discovery 3 \u0026amp; 4 has a drop-down tailgate and as such requires a swing away wheel carrier if the wheel is to be fitted on the rear of the vehicle, especially if the tyre size has been increased over standard. The Terrafirma spare wheel carrier attaches to the heavy rear chassis member close behind the plastic rear bumper. It is held closed with a clever over centre lockable lever arrangement and is held and assisted open with a gas strut, essential on a side slope and to prevent the carrier from trying to close under its own weight. This easy to operate spare wheel carrier also makes the space under the vehicle ideal for an extra fuel tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eBoth spare wheel carriers are finished in a heavy satin black powder coating and are supplied with fitting kits and comprehensive instructions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Terrafirma","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":65412174578013,"sku":"TF053","price":901.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1083\/5591\/2029\/files\/TF053_fitted_02_675x510_c74dde21-d195-49c9-bbc1-6e28a04919b5.jpg?v=1789132944"},{"product_id":"tf059","title":"Single Arm Spare Wheel Carrier - Chassis Mounted","description":"\u003cp\u003eOriginally Land Rover mounted the spare wheel on the bonnet of early vehicles.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThis was fine on a Series III with skinny tyres but as wheel and tyre options began to increase the logical choice was to put it on the back door.
