There might be better methods but I like the KISS mode. Go under apron with a ole can of primer and shoot up carrier hole. (Make sure apron is lined up correctly first)

I can't find anything to tell me if this thing mounts directly on the apron outside as I can't believe it would mount under and through.....07-25-2017, 07:46 PM -
On a '30 Deluxe Coupe with spare wheel carrier A-1426 B and a check (jamb) nut on the center bolt, should the spare be exactly vertical?07-11-2020, 05:28 PM -
What finish should the spare tire carrier to the body nuts and lock washers be, and do all three bolts including the top one get a lock washer? Thanks, Art07-03-2018, 05:46 AM -
So I've looked in the RG&JS, and I've looked in the Fine Point threads here, and I can't find any discussion of this. My late '29 std coupe has a rear spare carrier and I'm not sure whether the way it's attached to the body is the original way. Can somebody look at the attached pictures and tell me whether this is right or what the setup is supposed to be?You do not have permission to view this gallery.

I am reassembling the differential in my Tudor at the moment. I have a very good pair of axles and an excellent carrier. I have replaced the spider gears with new ones. When I try to bolt the two halves of the carrier together, I cannot turn the axles with the nuts any more than a little more than finger tight. It is jammed solid. Les Andrews is silent on this so I ask here - What is the fix??05-06-2020, 11:45 PM -
Has anyone ever seen a SIDE Mounting Spare Tire Plate with BOLTS instead of STUDS to hold the spare in place?
I have checked Brattons, Snyders and Bert's for this type of mounting but found none. Is this a non-existent part or someone made it?...05-24-2021, 05:33 PM -

So in the final stretch of getting Rusty put back together. Before paint I never thought about fitting rad splash apron. (mistake) but here I am. My hood shelf and fender are not flush with horns. They stick inward a bit. They are equal amounts over the inside edge of horns so I don't believe horns are bent. Any adjustments I can make? (Repop front Fenders)08-04-2018, 06:13 AM

I could not find information on lockwashers for the rear spare tire carrier. I am presuming they were used, if so, I am presuming they were gloss black to match the bolts?03-06-2018, 07:50 PM
