Spare wheel mounting hardware suggestions please
I have the RC4WD Gelande II with Land Rover D90 body kit, I intend to make the pickup version which (from my observations of real ones) has the spare wheel mounted just under the rear window of the cab. Unfortunately I haven't seen any models with the spare wheel mounted here, nor any readily available hardware to achieve this. On a real Land Rover, from what I can make out, there's just a round mount point on the body, on the model it should just need a mounting thread the same as is on the axles.
I was pondering if the spare wheel carrier from the SCX10 could work (with a bit of modification), I don't want the whole rear gate thing that I see on Range Rovers etc, that's not what they have here on real Land Rovers.
Any suggestions (maybe spare wheel mounting parts from other kits) greatly received!
