Spare wheel carrier

Hello,  I am converting a 1996 Boxer minibus which originally had a wheelchair lift fitted. This has been removed by the former owner and replaced with a towbar. The spare wheel was loose in the van and will no longer fit under the rear because of the towbar. I have seen a pictureof a carrier that fits on the rear door but is supported by a frame that is attached to the van body at the door hinge, I think it is called a swing out spare wheel carrier. Any help or advice please in finding one of these carriers.

Hi, external wheel carriers seem to be a bit of a landrover speciality.  A post on one of the landrover forums gives some good links to the swing hinge type you describe: http://forum.landrovernet.com/archive/index.php/t-18631.html   Another option is the bolt on the back door option see previous post http://www.campervanconversion.co.uk/node/181 hopefully one of these is of some use.  Cheers
