WHY USE A WHEELIAMS WHEEL CARRIER?

Wheeliams Wheel Carriers are popular with van users who are looking for a beautifully designed Wheel Carrier with great practical features and offering amazing value for money.

–

Fits:

Ford Transit Custom with Barn Doors (2doors) 2012+ onwards

Fits all height vans  

–

The key benefits of our Wheel Carriers are:

Fitting the spare wheel at the rear of the vehicle keeps the wheel cleaner than when fitted to the underside and makes access to the wheel safer and easier.

The Wheel Carrier swings out with the opening of the rear door without any additional operations.

Our Wheel Carriers are fully compatible with parking sensors, rear van windows and rear wipers.

No need for you to relocate the vehicle licence plate or the vehicle badge.

You gain additional space under the van to fit gas, fuel or water tanks.

Wheeliams Wheel Carriers can be used for wheels too large to fit in the standard under-van cradle.

Wheel Carrier Details

All Wheel Carriers are hand built and are available on a lead time of 10 working days. Construction is very robust, utilising MIG welded mild steel tube and plate fabricated in house by our skilled personnel.

The Wheel Carriers are carefully designed for each make of vehicle so that they do not obscure number plates or rear lights.

Wheel Carriers are supplied unfinished in bare metal for you to finish as you wish.

Wheels are bolted on to the carrier using standard wheel bolts and we recommend that you use locking wheel bolts (M14x1.5 thread) for extra security. Please note that these are not included with your product.

Wheel Carrier Installation

Fixings required to fit the wheel carrier to the van are supplied.

Wheel Carriers bolt to the existing hinges on the door and requires one hole drilling in the skin of the door. This wheel carrier can be fitted to vans with either 180 or 270degree hinges. 

The carrier bolts to door using the factory Ford door hinge bolts. The door does NOT need removing to fit this. 

Always test fit any bolt-on product before painting to be sure it fits. We will not reimburse for painting if the part is not test fitted prior to painting. 

All drilled holes will require any bare metal painting to prevent corrosion. We also bond the door skin mount and the door skin which removes the point load off the bolts whilst also sealing up the hole to prevent water ingress. 

Product weight: 8KG.

No hinge modifications required to fit this Wheel Carrier.
