spare wheel facing backwards?

[G-Master]

Since my Grenadier gets new rims and tyres anyway I would like to change the frontfacing wheel to a backfacing version. The pic is from trackparts, but there`s no special bracket in their shop. Does anyone know, where I can get one or is there any other solution to turn the sparewheel like it's shown on the pic? My dealer said it wouldn`t work with the original mount because of the bolts being to short to fit securely

Several US vendors have made mounts to turn the wheel around including Agile Off Road and Owl Vans

I installed the Agile Offroad one it’s a very sturdy and well made part. I was initially concerned it would not work with a stock wheel (larger positive offset) as the reverse mount is designed for wheels with a smaller offset but it fit perfectly. Other vendors out there also have great options so you should be able to find what you need.

I used the Agile. It's extremely nice and high quality.

Thanks guys, very kind and helpfull. Will order the Agile right away! Hope the way to Germany doesn't last too long. Very keen on driving the Grenadier with the new shoes on...

Blacksheep in Switzerland also has one if you don’t want to wait - I THINK it allows you to flip the tire around.

I used the Owl one - it’s more adjustable than the Agile one but “not going to win any beauty contests” as their CEO says
