Spare wheel carriers


Anyone know where I can dual get spare wheel carriers that drop down and not pivot sideways? One of the caravan manufacturers (can't remember which manufacturer) has them on their vans but I figure they're made specifically for that van manufacturer... and I can't find them anywhere else. I'm a bit old to lift 4WD tyres -- they're not light -- up onto the "normal" spare wheel carriers. Any suggestions? Oops -- Central Coast to Newcastle or northers suburbs of Sydney.

I recall seeing dropdown units on some expanda type vans. As to their make I wouldn't know.

Sorry folks; I should have also added that I want them for a 4WD, not a c'van.

No decision yet, but probably a D-Max.

G'day Yobarr,

Not quite what I had in mind but it would be okay. Only problem is that the only reference to Atlantic spare wheel holders on Google doesn't show the model in the youtube video... and it's not on the Travel Trucks website either. Travel Trucks is where the youtube video was done.
