I fitted a spare wheel carrier 2 years ago and today decided to put another spare underneath as I get ready to head outback but cant get the cable down any further than about 4 inches. Will try to put some weight on the cable and see what happens. Take the road less traveled.

Even the Abu Dhabi dealership bolloxed my winch when they replaced new 2 new tyres and a spare swop on my LR.
Guess what ?
After a blow-out on one of my equally useless Good Years, I tried to change the spare next to the road, the winch was broken. I could not get the spare out.
Replaced under warranty after they tried for 4 hours to remove the unit (with the spare hanging onto it), to claim the unit under warranty from the suppliers.
Replaced the factory fault with the same they did, albeit a new factory fault.
Boggles the mind really.
THE one thing you need on an off-road machine is a spare tyre.
Lucky for me the country is small. If it happens in the dessert I will call the Tow-Assist - free of charge.
