away tire carrier
Limited availabilty. Email to enquire.
- Mounts to the body of the van only.
There are NO attachments to the rear door, bumper or hitch. This means
you can use stock or aftermarket bumpers.
- Alignment and movement problems are
eliminated by not having the latch on the door. This is stronger as
well.
- When parked and camping, you can have the
rear door open and the tire carrier closed and latched. This means the
weight of the tire is not hanging on the hinge alone.
If the latch were on the door, this would not be possible.
- The hinge plate extends along nearly the
entire length of the door jamb, this increases the strength considerably.
- All fasteners are stainless steel.
Carrier is finished in black powder coat. All bolts are "Button head"
stainless allan socket type, low profile - almost flush.
- The closure mechanism is a heavy duty
automotive door latch. To open you just press a lever.
To close just shut like you are closing a car door, no fiddling with
latches.
- This tire carrier will accommodate tires
from stock size up to 30.5" in diameter, alloy or steel rims, any offset.
If it will fit on a vanagon, it will fit on this carrier.
- Two tire carriers can be installed, one on
each side. One tire carrier occupies less than 1/2 of the door.
- The good side of the wheel can face in or
out. If you have alloy wheels you can have the more attractive side
facing out, no tire cover is needed.

drivers side $795 US dollars
Tire lock, $20 extra
