I have just mounted the spare wheel on my 2010 Renault Master according to your design.
Brilliant design !!!
Thank you
Fantastic! Glad it helped!
Fantastic! I was thinking I was going to have to bolt through the floor, but this is a brilliant engineering solution.
I imagine MOT testers were also happy with the design? Brilliant work.
Many thanks. Yes MOT tester have been fine with it for several years now
Just done mine on my Renault master cost £50 thanks buddy easy to do thanks again
That's great to hear, well done, glad it was of use! 👍
Thanks so much for this video. I have been trying to work out a way to get the spare wheel out of my van for ages!
Hi! Thank You for this solution. I made this way a year ago and till now works fine. Once even I had to use spare wheel and mount works like a charm. Thanks again.
That's great to hear! Many thanks and happy travels 👍
Też ucinałeś ten kawałek metalu jakby od haka?
@@dtbndtbn tak. trzeba uważać, żeby nie poprzecinać przewodów od gniazdka przyczepki.
@@krzychuzet pytałem już autora, ale nie zaszkodzi poznać i Twoje zdanie - zderzak nie rusza się jakoś mocniej po wycięciu tego uchwytu?
@@dtbndtbn nie, zderzak jest absolutnie nieruchomy, b.często na nim staję
Vous êtes juste brillantissime!!! Merci pour cette magnifique invention!
Very many thanks for your video, this is an excellent idea and exactly what I needed to solve the same problem on my retired fire service support LDV Maxus van/campervan. So very many thanks again 😊
You're welcome, glad it was useful 👍
Hello.
The video is four years old now so I'm assuming it works with no issues?
Thank you.
Hello. Great video! Only one question, what is your tyre size ? Mine looks too wide to fit under. Thank you
Glad you like it! My tyres are 225/65R16C. Hope it works for you too 👍
Excellent solution. I wonder if this will work for a Ducato. My spare (that didn't come with the vehicle is hanging around in the garage. I'd love to sling it underneath. I have 4 brand new continental tyres but couldn't tour without a spare, its a budget tyre on a secondhand rim. I have to wait now for some fine weather to see if there is a similar location on the ducato...
Thanks again for sharing.
Glad you like it and hope it's of use 👍
The bits you cut off forms part of the spare wheel support, on my Renault master bus it has a long bolt to support the spear wheel at that point
Hey! Great video! What a great idea... I'm just doing mine now but do you know what size diameter eyebolt you used? I have one but the inside diameted is 35mm. Surely that might jump over the nuts? Or do you think that's impossible... The link you gave is now not working! Thanks for all your help!!!
From what I can see on my ebay order it was a M20 stainless eye bolt 20mm DIN580
Finally a great idea what I was looking for.
Can not wait to fix on my Movano camper.
Big thanks!!!!
You're most welcome! Enjoy!
After cutting off that metal thing, does rear bumper still hold good?
Yep, its never shown a wobble and been through plenty of MOTs now
So, tomorrow I'm cutting it too...
How do you lift the wheel up on to the stud bar? They are too heavy to lift by hand.
Could try supporting some of the weight with the jack ?
Brilliant, shame the links no longer work as I'm trying to work out the parts sizes required for the threaded bars, steel plate etc
Apologies, yes I guess the link will eventually die! From looking at my receipts I think it was all M20 bar/nuts etc. The M20 threaded stainless bar was cut down from a 1m length I ordered. Hope that helps
Just measure your fucken wheel bolts. If yours is also a mk2 then that's m14s BTW, which is 14mm. And the fuck you mean you need to work out what size plate you need? The pcd is 5x130. That's the furthest distance between 2 bolts. Just add a bit, and plate is plate, it's adequate thickness if it's plate..
nice one! aint the rear axle rubbing into the tire while moving?
No, there's clearance between the tyre and the axle 👍
@@OlyLowe ok thanks, going for it tomorrow :D
What's the ground clearance like going over speed pumps etc after this?
The same as with the towbar fitted anyway
@@OlyLowe ok nice. Was a bit worried about grounding out but I'll give this a try. Thanks for video
So its pouring down with rain one day you get a flat then go crawling around under the van for the spare,what if theres no room ie on a grass verge etc?
You'd best tell a whole load of car manufacturers who mount their spare wheels under their vehicles too...Dear Land Rover, Ford, Renault... 🤣🤣🤣
@@OlyLowe es at a point where you can remove it without laying on the ground,they can be removed from the back using the supplied handle lowered down on a winch type thing.
You do not have to crawl under the car etc itself
@@shedendman you still have to get down and drag the wheel out from under the vehicle with factory fitted wind down spare wheels. I have a long handled ratchet though so again you don't need to crawl under the vehicle.
The other points to note though are two fold, firstly I've never had to replace a wheel on this vehicle yet, I've only had to do one wheel on another vehicle in the last 10 years (200k miles), so it's a rare event really and why many manufacturers don't include spare wheels now (along with efficency & cost) just the fixing kits (which I carry as well anyway). I do go to some pretty remote places though so wanted the extra security of a spare wheel so long as it didn't impinge on my internal space. The second point is that this is a van with all the kit to get changed and clean within it, so if I were to get a muddy knee, I could get clean and changed if I was so worried about getting a bit of mud inside the cab.
Finally, this is a suggestion I (and now many others) like find works, nobody is forcing you to put this on your van, so if its not for you don't worry about it and just move on.
All the best, Oly
@@OlyLowe lol,never ever say yet
That'll be a problem for the breakdown fella! No way could I fit a spare wheel and a massive jack inside my camper.
How are you finding it two years on?
Great, not had to use it yet, but the garage has never had issue with it and it has stayed in situ fine.
Thanks very much for your video! How have you found this to work? Everything good or anything you would adjust? Thanks, Jason
It works great thanks. I've put in about 2000 miles since. Highly recommended
Oly i have to say thanks again, I ended up fitting this setup on my renault master a few weeks ago and all is good! Thanks for your video!
@@JasonnnnP that's great to hear, many thanks 👍
Brilliant! My kind of engineering. Thanks for sharing.
That's a brilliant idea, where you can buy all stuff needed?
All on ebay, see the description text under the video itself where I listed all the bits.
I used a spare wheel carryer off a ford galaxy just cut a hole in the floor and bolted it up and then you can wind it down from the inside of the van
I couldn't do that as the inside of the van at that location is the living area
No chance of this on my 2008 Renault master. Tyre is 270mm wide and total ground clearance from chassis to ground is only 370mm. So with wheel underneath it leaves just 100mm. No way that works for me :(
It fits between the chassis beams (on the 2009 model anyway)
@@OlyLowe really? On a 2008 there is no way it will fit between, when i say chassis I mean the cross ways bars not the side bars. Gutted. Really want that wheel out the way but it's not to be.
First comment, yipee!
Great idea and thanks for the video.
We're just starting out conversion ok our 2009 master so this is extremely useful!
How tricky is it to get into place/remove when needed?
To remove its easy, lean or lie (carry an old towel) under and spanner off.
To put on it is a bit tricky, I lay on my back, put 3x pieces of 4x2 under the front edge and lifted the rear with my leg leaving my hands free to attach the plate, washer and nut.
In reality the tyre repair place will reattach the spare once the damaged tyre is fixed though so it shouldn't be a problem.
Odds are you'll never need it, but it's good to have it!
wadą jest to że przy odkręcaniu koło spadnie i połamie ci ręce.
