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 -
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.

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 -
Years ago I saw a chart with pictures to identify the different rear spare tire carriers. I can't find anything now.
About 15 years ago I bought a rear spare mount for my cousin's 1930 Fordor, but he sold the car before I got the mount to him, so now I'd like to sell it to get my $35 back, but want to be sure it's the correct application first. I'll take a picture of it later, but we still should...04-14-2018, 09:09 AM -
