In this episode, you are gonna see how a dream came true ... HOW WE BUILT THIS AWESOME SPARE TIRE CARRIER and JERRYCAN HOLDER for my SF Subaru Forester.
I wanted this for a very long time !
This carrier is the perfect addition for my OVERLAND RIG with its two swing out arms, leaving the back of the trunk empty and allowing me to bring some extra fuel or water for longer trips.
And seriously ... It looks SO COOL !
Oh ! and by the way ... THIS is the FIRST MID EUROPE OVERLAND BOUND JOINED PROJECT ! So, it's even more awesome !
MANY MANY THANKS TO ROBERT FROM DRAGON RIDERS TRAVEL FOR MAKING THIS POSSIBLE !
Show him some love here :

I would like to also request that you consider publishing the plans. Your choice of the dual carrier rack and use of existing bumper are terrific ideas. The impression I have of a nearly factory installed design. Love it!

@softroadingthewest 5 лет назад

This is absolutely BRILLIANT. This has to be one of the nicest looking and best-conceived designs I've ever seen. I love how you've preserved the original lines of the car. Perfectly functional, but so tasteful and understated compared to the common approach (in the U.S. at least) of replacing the entire bumper cover with steel tubes (which ends up revealing a bunch of ugly stuff that's normally hidden). I also love how snugly everything fits right up against your rear hatch rather than hanging several inches out as do many of the other solutions I've seen. Wow. Really amazingly nice work. My only question: I saw the lock on the jerry can, but any sort of anti-theft system planned to keep the spare tire from walking away?

@ALNSMOVERLAND 5 лет назад

Many thanks ! I'm very glad to hear all of that ! And we really think the same way ... ahaha I wanted to keep the stock bumper and to make the less cut possible in it. I also wanted to keep everything centered and tight against the hatch for weight distribution. I also wanted (I wanted a lot of things ahaha) to keep the taillights clear for obvious safety reasons. All of this made the build a bit more difficult and it's a tight fit to open the hatch. But we made it and everything work (and look !) nice. So I'm very happy with it 😉

@ALNSMOVERLAND 5 лет назад

Oh and yes, at the moment, I have nothing to secure the spare. And I guess that anti theft lug nuts are not enough ... So I'm gonna fix this quick

@ChrisZBr0wn 5 лет назад

@O85OLETE 5 лет назад

Friggin amazing work! One question that I wish I knew the answer to is why the rear triangle behind the spare tire mount was made so high up on the top point. Its hard to tell but it looks like the top point goes higher than the center of the hub of the spare wheel. Seems like any length of metal above the center line of the hub would be unecesary but I'm sure there's a legitimate reason for that being there. The triangle mount its self with the three anchor points to the swing arm looks plenty strong so not sure why the extra length was added to the tire mount. Either way it looks really nice and is my favorite mod to your Foz so far! keep it up!

@ALNSMOVERLAND 5 лет назад

Thanks mate! There is absolutely a reason for it! And it's that we screw up the first time and the spare wheel was way too high and we couldn't open the hatch anymore 😂 So we lowered the mounting point of the wheel and didn't cut the extra metal on top 😉

I am curious about the pivots you used to mount the arms. Are they front stub axles? What is the wall thickness you used for the square tube?

@ALNSMOVERLAND 5 лет назад

No, they are dedicated hinge kit from AtoZ Fabrication 😉 we used 3 or 5mm, I don't remember

Hey Mike, thanks for your comment. The gas tank mount itself came with the gas tank, we didn't build it
