Hi
Just fitted a ORA rear bumper and now I can`t fit the spare wheel "30inch wheel size"
How`s best to over come this problem and I need all the seats
would the spare wheel exstension mount bits4vits sell sort this problem
Thanks
B4V extension might do, seems to moved the spare 2" out and 3" up from memory. Ive thrown the rear seats away and put the spare inside as big tyres knacker the door hinges anyway.
I have a spare B4V extension somewhere if I can find it, whats it worth?
I had the same problem and fitted the B4V extension which works fine! I also had to extend the rubber bump stops on the door so that the tyre rested against them. I used some Samurai spring bushes which I just had lying around! Its a shame the bumper isn't recessed in the middle to overcome the problem. Maybe the new one wil be.

we actually manufacture the B4V's spacers for Dave... really we should also be offering these as an add on...
But as the production of our current bumper models is drawing to a close adn we're just clearing out the last of the remaining batch we are taking in to account all these niggly issues with our new models.
