I recently went over a gutter and knocked the spare wheel. The bracket came loose at the front and dropped the wheel on the ground.
I removed the bolts and took the bracket and wheel off and put the in the back. On returning home I hopped end the car to put the bracket back, I now find the hooks that hold the front end of the bracket have sheered off - I took it to the dealer and they said it is part of the cross bar and not a bolt on bracket so can't be replaced. I have to get someone to weld new hooks onto the chassis.
I tried to look under a van but cannot get a good look at it with the spare wheel in place.
Does anyone have a photo of the hooks or diagram of it so i can get a new one made up and welded in place?
